Have I got mosaic virus?
« on: June 10, 2017, 11:12 »
Hello, I am new to the forum and quite new to attempting to grow vegetables. It's not as easy as you might imagine is it!? I think my butternut squash plants may have mosaic virus and if so I think I should pull them up before it spreads to the courgettes and tomatoes. Can anyone advise me if this (see photo) is mosaic virus or if they're just looking a bit peaky because it's been so wet?

The newest leaf appears undamaged? If so I wouldn't be worried at the moment - see how the plant grows over the next week or so

Yes, the new leaves look fine just like your cucumbers, so I'm hoping it's the wet weather. I've been advised to feed with some seaweed once a week. Fingers crossed : )
