Hello,
I'm new to the forum but have gardened for maybe 5 years or so. I've only grown cucumbers two years and this year I had a plant that was probably 8 or 9 ft long and producing well. I went out today and noticed the plant stem was likely chewed through. Would this be a cutworm thing? From most of what I've read it sounds like they generally chew on the seedlings and very low to the ground. This was maybe 3 ft off the ground. Also will the plant keep growing or is it as good as dead at this point?
Thanks for any help!
