? Think I may have a virus in my greenhouse

Help...

OK I didnt use a smoke bomb this year and I have have a greenhouse full of plants flower and veg all growing on ready harden off soon. One of my 6 giant pumpkin plants raised from seed and until the other day looked really well, is going kind of yellow and curling at the edges. The leaves feel sort of rough and dry as well. Could this be overewatering with a weak comfrey solution? of do I have a virus ??

hi shirley,1..do the other plants look ok,if so then i doubt it's a virus,sounds like you may have under or over watered,could it have been near a draught,if it's the only 1,or has it been frosted,got to cold,have a look at it's roots to see if any grubs eating them,especially if you have used some from a last years pot,failing that,then i have no idea,have a google for plant deceases ext,sorry i cannot be of any more help,hope your others are ok.
