My plant is yellow. The leaves are not wilting. Compared to my other plants it is very yellow. It also has not kept a pumpkin...it either aborts them or,as now, it has no female flowers. It is July 25. Is there anything to do, or should I just rip it out?

The vines are yellow or the stems are yellow?

Sometimes YVD won't cause severe wilting. Before you rip it out I would see how it responds to a shot of fertilizer. Just in case. ... But to me it seems like more might be going on.

Posted a picture to the grower diary. No link here because it hasn't made it through the posting process yet. Leaves and vine seem yellow to me. I think I might go take a better picture when I get back there.

Thank you for the replies. I will give it a bit of something to see if it turns around.

Many people find that a foliar Spray of Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulfate) works wonders to green up a yellow plant.
Also, it would not do any harm.
