| All of the sudden my watermelon plant leaves (mainly the bottom/oldest 35%) have been turning yellow with brown spots. Some also have white (non-powdery) funk going on like in the photo. I have 4 sugar baby watermelons that I am waiting to ripen and hopefully save. I don't know if I can save them though or the plant. Does this look like a fungal infection? Should I buy a fungicide? |

| That looks a little like spider mites. Are there very small insects on the under side? It could just be lack of fertilizer and aging leaves. |

| Those look like aging leaves and shouldn't effect your melons. |
