2 weeks ago i was picking males to save for pollination and whoops i fell in the patch lets just say not a good thing it lookes liked a herd of elephants went through my patch. So heres my question the leaves afterward where bent some broken i fixed them as much as i could but lets just they looked bad i waited and they where okay except for minor damage. I sprayed orthobugbegone and the diesese control progaram the other day and now when i look at my leaves i see uglyness yuckkk they are burnet on the edges and dying but only in and around where i thinned with my body lol so im wondering is it leaf burn because i thinned by mistake or is it because my plant is almost 3mts old and well older leaves die first what to do the leaves that are younger all look heathly and happy except the middle of the patch hopefully i can get a pic posted soon i hope i did not kill my plants with the ortho spraying or the unintentonal thinning

The patch elephant damage will grow back so long as the vines weren't crushed.

Chemical sprays should only be made in the cool of early evening. The rate should be at or below the lowest labeled. Was this the case?

i sprayed what the bottle told me it was thru a thru a hose end sprayer and was also mixed with the recomended dose of the diesese control stuff,the vines where not crushed just the leaves and it only looks bad in the middle of the patch the rest of the patch looks great
