Hi All. I'm looking for some help here. Over the last week many of my vegetables have started dying. The leaves are getting a lot of brown spots and ultimately curling up and dying. The attached picture shows (from top left, clockwise): habanero, canteloupe, beet, pole bean and zucchini. Does anyone know what could be causing this and what the solutions are?

The only thing I can think of is that a neighbor was spraying weed killer in their patio about ten days ago and this could be the result of drift...

Suggestions/solutions?

Thanks so much!
Steve

If you were down wind of the spay you have eaisly got some drift. A lot of weed killers have 2x4D in them and that stuff can drift for miles.
