green beans were fine yesterday. today a patch is all wilted; the rest are ok. They did have some leaves eaten by deer.

Question

Why are they wilted in one section?

Answer 1

It sounds like gopher, or another tunneling animal damage! You can usually tell if they have been around when the ground is soft and squishy from the tunnels they dig.
