Yellow spot leave wilting plant plant disease on pumpkin plant

​Why are pumpkin flowers wilting and leaves showing yellow spots?​

The pumpkin plant has contracted a viral disease transmitted by whiteflies. These whiteflies have spread the virus to the pumpkin, affecting the normal formation of flowers.​

Recommendations:​

  1. Trim off some of the severely affected leaves (retain 70% of the foliage on the plant).​
  2. Spray Mr Ganick Aphid Buster to alleviate symptoms caused by pests and the virus.​
  3. Apply approximately two handfuls of Baba Compost-based Fertilizer to the pumpkins plant to aid in recovery.​

​When using Mr Ganick Aphid Buster, please note:

  1. Shake the bottle before use.​
  2. Pests tend to hide on the undersides of leaves, so be sure to spray the natural insecticide on the underside of the leaves.​
  3. Avoid spraying in direct sunlight (especially around noon) to prevent leaf burn.​
  4. Spray at least once a week for prevention; for severe cases, spray every 3 days.
