Is this leaf spot? (courgette & pumpkin)
« on: June 29, 2010, 18:29 »
Hi all

This is our first attempt at courgettes and pumpkins...and most other things really :blush:

Although most leaves seem healthy a couple on each plant don't look well (see pics) but they don't look the same either ???

Any ideas what is wrong or how to treat it??

All help greatly appreciated :)

Courgette 1


Courgette 2 (same plant)


Pumpkin 1


Pumpkin 2 (same plant)

Thanks Matthew, I'll keep an eye out for anything that may be nibbling.

the last photo also looks like a bit of scorch on an older leaf - possibly wind damage or lack of water at some point.  Curcubits also like a higher nitrogen feed - such as plenty of manure - but you could also give a liquid feed to give them a boost.
Failure is only a temporary change in direction to set you straight for your next success.
Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.
