Oozing pumpkin treatment Alun suggested
I have already poured (out of desperation) a bottle of hydrogen peroxide
on it because it had been suggested on this forum. It has stopped
oozing, but there is sort of a hole at the site. It doesn't go all the
way through the wall, though. I am going to wait and see if this
problem dries up and scars over. Meanwhile I will get some calcium
nitrate at the nursery. For my tomatoes I have always sprinkled lime on
the soil when I see end rot and this cures the problem. Perhaps lime
will work as well as calcium citrate for the pumpkin. What do you
think?
