All Cucurbit crops are being harvested, except pumpkins.
Stay vigilant against downy mildew and Phytophthora pathogens. Downy mildew on cucumber has been confirmed in 13 Michigan counties across the major production regions.
Phytophthora crown and fruit rot symptoms can include blighting of the plant’s petioles and crown that lead to wilting. Fruit should not be harvested from regions of the field that are showing Phytophthora symptoms.
