Does anybody have a picture of the symptoms? I thought what I had was just a severly low sun tolerance but I was looking at a website and they had similar problems and the picture looks similar to mine. My leaves dont seem to "burn" on non sunny days though so I'm not sure this is what I really have, I'm charging the battery for my camera so I can take some pictures.
Thanks
Ben

Take a look Ben...what I thought was Antracnose or gummy stem blight all last year turmed out yo be fusaria...Watch your fruit set and see if any secondary symptoms appear...if you have to cut off any vines check the inside for any extra coating inside...if sap is syruppy etc...hope it just the sun burning new leaves...cover the tip from the sun and see if condition stops..don't water to late at night or overwater...Good Luck!!!
