Quite a lot of the leaves are starting to turn yellow and die off, at first I thought they were just being shaded out. Feels like I’m having to prune off an awful lot though.
What’s going on here? Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance 🙏

if it’s not fungal maybe a watering issue?
could be the wood chip mulch is preventing proper evaporation and the roots are sitting in wet soil
Not enough nitrogen perhaps (see [chart](https://hyper-logic.com/compounds-that-affect-maximum-yields/))? How are you feeding them? You can get one of those inexpensive [soil test kits](https://www.amazon.com/Vegetables-assembled-completely-accurately-nutrients/dp/B01HQXF0PS) to check NPK levels. My plants are heavy feeders and I was getting similar leaf issues. Couldn’t tell if I was over or under fertilizing; the test indicated under, so adding more fertilizer fixed my issues.
seems quite normal for me, once the plant fruits and the fruits grow big the leaves turn yellow and start falling off
