Hi Joey........... Is it hot where your at? It could be many things. Grubs that eat at the roots. Are you over doing it with the ferts? Could be that your plant is developing roots, and is stablizing to it's new habitation. Get some tarp sheeting to filter out some of the heat off your plants. Some people will use misters to cool down the plants. I had a leaf wilt problem with mine. I thought some of my leaves where going to drop right off. Most of all.........It might be the vine borer that can take your plant down. Keep a close eye on your vines, espacially close to the stump area. Hope someone else has clues as to what might be going on? Good luck!
