HEAT MAY BE GONE, BUT DAMAGE LEFT BEHIND. 3 LOCAL GROWERS LOST SEVERAL
PUMPKINS TO ROT. MOST WERE BLOSSOM END . 1 OF THE BIGGEST I LOST WAS A
KILLER. 92" CIRC. AT 21DAYS. THAT WAS MY FASTEST START EVER. I'M FIGHTING
STEM STRESS ON MY BIGGEST, THE SAME PROBLEM I 'VE HAD MY ONLY 2 YEARS PRIOR.
I USE THE CAPTAN PASTE , BUT WHAT A PAIN. IT BLEEDS BY THROUGH THE NEXT AND
YOU ARE BACK TO SQUARE ONE THE NEXT DAY. I USED LIQUID SEAWEED, LEFT 4
PUMPKINS ON THAT TO BE SHOCK ABSORBERS, AND STILL STEM STRESS. ANY OTHER
SUGGESTIONS. IT JUST SEEMS THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING BETTER TO SEAL IT WITH.
JULY WAS CINCINNATI, OHIO HOTTEST EVER. I'M SURE OTHERS IN THE MIDWEST HAVE
FOUGHT THE HEAT. GOOD LUCK
TOM B.
