    Hi All,

    Is it normal to have a few pants here and there
    just up and die on you?

    SO far I have pulled out one dead zucchini and
    am about to pull out one dying pepper .

    Perplexed,

    it can happen. with very difficult conditions for forming
    a large root system that some plants need...

    look up vascular collapse. but also for the zuke it may
    also be borers so you can check the stem and see if any got
    in there.
