Not sure about this one, secondary closest to the fruit about 10 ft long was wilted over suddenly this evening. Not too hot out, it was fine yesterday. Looked like the vine had a sudden break or had been cut off the main, but everything is intact. Misted it with water and is slightly perked up. Also the pumpkin had an extreme amount of sapping today, some places dripping down the sides. Could the pumpkin have just sucked the life out of this secondary? Other thought would be a mole chopped off the roots here, as there are some mole tracks in the area. August is a month of dealing with problems.
