Is there any particular reason that we do not want vines or leaves touching
the skin of the pumpkin?  Also - is there any good "lotion" that can be
applied to the pumpkin to keep the skin from drying out?  This is my first
year at this and even after reading a few books on the topic, I still find
plenty of questions.

I've got a fairly good shade over the pumpkin now.  It gained 14 pounds in
the last day. Pictures can be seen at "http://blog.acker1.com


Thanks,
