i dont provide a greenhouse but I suspect with all the rain we have received that might contribute. I am in high ground soil which may allow for good drainage and I am on a slight alkaline scale of the ph .Tomatoes and squash have done well, and cucumbers start well but will have cycles of green to browning . I f watering is needed, I will water earlier in the day, to late and they sit in water at night that might create a fungus.?

Hi Reggie,
Your plants are getting brown edges ...it does sound like they need more water but that's hard to believe considering all the rain we've had. Could you send me some pictures ? Is it all of your plants ?
It sounds like maybe you have a fungus in your soil that affects them year after year. Look at the link below and see if anything sounds like your problem;
