The leaves on my pumpkin plants are light yellow with light green vanes. I have been using soaker hoses from a plastic 55 gallon barrel filled with Miracle-Gro 24-8-12 one tablespoon per gallon and fish emulsion about six cups to 55 gallons of water. I had two barrels full of the mixture fall off of the elevated stand and they poured out into the patch between the two plants. One of the plants is in the picture above and the other one looks like it is not too far behind. I looked online at some disease pictures and tried to match the leaves on my plants to the ones on the sites. The only thing that I have found that is a close visual match to an iron deficiency. The plant has now completely died and I have removed it from the patch. I was thinking that the Miracle-Gro and fish spillage has damage the nutrients that the plant needs to grow. I was wondering if anyone has a clue to what this might be???
