squash and zucchini brown spots and edges

My ssquash and zuchini are turning brown on the edges and some brown spots. Also two of them are getting eaten by something and also all my egg plant. Help... They are planted in the ground and I have really good dirt. It has been nice weather and I did fertilize 2 times. I also have some black paper down to keep out the weeds but they are getting plenty of water. I water every other day. I put something called Dipple dust or Dapple dust on them, kinda like 7 dust, I think.

Thanks,'
Kiera

Hmmm, what did you fertilize them with and how close were the sessions. It sounds like you may have given the plant a little too much juice. You may have also gotten some on the leaves.

Too much water will cause the leaf tips to turn brown.
