Thats my bet. Maybe someone will up the ante. We might get some good discussion going on this one too. (Latest post in his diary.)

I think he mentioned he was sending out a tissue sample, so I have a feeling he is going to let us know what it is pretty soon.

Ah, the guessing game continues.

Matt is correct 100% of the time with his observations and recommendations, no guesswork....it’s science.

Lol. Let's ask google how to grow a pumpkin and not develop our own cognitive abilities.

Throw out your guess NSB... live on the edge and shoot one from the hip.

matt i get a similar pattern here with older leaves and yes i found phos acid which we use in avocados has helped i have to start about one quarter way through season with applications or the season can be over quicker the plant ages quicker in heat but i dont know if i am right but i wonder are we trying to make older leaves live a lot longer than possible like keeping us alive to 150 the second half we are not productive like the leaves
