Iāve read the same thing. Guess weāll all learn something from this 
Very true luckily its not puddling anywhere near my garden
@Josh1126, how big are the holes you got your plants in? And too much water in the bottom can so this to them, if your soil is like mine, it will build up if it rains alot, thatās the problem with digging holes In clay and then replacing with better soil, the water will run through the good soil and puddle up when it hits the clay and drown your rootsā¦thatās what it looks like to meā¦it must have been really raining where your at
It also could be a problem with everything building up at your root zone and canāt go no where, sad to say but until it dries up nothing you can do
They are about a foot across maybe a little more and maybe a foot and a half deep out of the past ten days or so its rained about 8 or 9 days but it hasnt been real heavy rain just enough to be annoying @Sittingbull64

Yeah Iām saying thatās the problem, I been growing in the ground for almost 40 years and have learned the hard way to dig your holes as big as you have time to dig! Lolā¦2 to 2 1/2 feet across or 3 and 2 feet deep, I know thatās alot but it worksā¦it will dry up and they will heal right back up
If it was nutes they should have been flushed away by now
Thank you @Sittingbull64 next year i will dig them alot bigger hell maybe just replace all the soil in my garden lmao

I was thinking maybe that was the problem there was no nutes in the soil and they had been washed away i was hoping that the grass and what not around the plants would help if it rained like this @Sittingbull64

First thing I would say is how deep did you dig and wide? And whatās at the bottom of that hole? If itās more dirt or gravel you will probably be fine. If itās clay it may have trouble with drainage. 9 days could be fine if itās light to medium rain. Iād be worried about mold. I worry about that dying leaf growing mold depending on your day and night temps.

@Sittingbull64 thats why i decided to put them in the ground i figured even if they grew through the good soil the could still get through the clay and hopefully get me a good harvest even though i started them indormors and topped kinda early i still at 15 tops on one of the girls
