HeyO farm- I've been working the hands to a pulp this year and haven't been around much. I'm making time today because of an issue I've never seen before- I'm hoping someone else here has and can give up some insight before she gets worse or I just cull...
So the whole damn field got soaking wet over the last 2 weeks but in the last four or five days had sunned up and dried up and were ready for another watering. I had noticed a slight color difference in this plant a couple of days ago but didn't give it the time it needed... Found this watering this morning. Homeslice said he saw what looked like a larva thing crawling into it- I never saw it but know he's on the level... Anyway it appears to be some fungus type of affliction although I don't know how that plays out with a larva crawling around. The plant is a lighter shade of green although I suspect it would be with almost any other issue as well. It is in an organic soil mix but (shame on me) I haven't put a tea on her in about a month. The stalk above the fungus looks as though the plant is ready to be culled.
I remember @Capulator had some thing called Elephant's foot or something like that a couple of years back but can't seem to find the thread now. Maybe @Seamaiden can remember.
Any insight and help is appreciated. Maybe I'll share a photo or two once this thing gets sorted out.
Thanks Farm,
PB
