We believe that these plants were a victim to the harsh heat they experienced when planted. Temperatures averaged in the 90\u2019s when these transplants were placed in the field. Likely no amount of irrigation could have been sufficient enough for these transplants to withstand the heat.<br \/>\nIf you suspect damping-off, however, call the Extension office and talk to Jeremy or I. Transplants should be treated with a fungicide when leaving the greenhouse. Once damping-off is discovered in the field there is no cure, only prevention.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why are my cabbage transplants dying?
