Planted tonight in prepared mounds, method used is the Direct Start Method
combined with the Compost Feeding Method listed on Dan’s Page with pictures.
http://www.athenet.net/~dang/pumpkins.html Still getting real cold here,
25/66 today.
Planted 10 seeds in the first mound AG-480-97-GB a AG-553-92-GB child crossed
with AG-717-91-MM, (Mike MacDonald) and AG-798-95-PNZ, (Zehr). Will be
thinned to one plant over the next 8 weeks.
Planted one each in the second mound, Greer 1006 and Anderson 977. Will
painfully thin to one by the end of June.
This year I’m making the most extensive changes I’ve ever made in the last 20
years growing these things, hope it gets me out of this slump. Periodic
updates to follow.
George
