I have a question and PLEASE do not refer me to the archives. Do you know
how difficult and time consuming it is to search for one little answer in
the gazillion e-mails? That type of response is frustrating, at best.
Newcomers need mentors to guide them, and we really appreciate it when you
share your knowledge.
I was wondering: If you plant a pumpkin in a climate with a long growing
season, say 9 months like we have here in Texas, instead of 5-6 months of
the northern areas will the pumpkins continue to grow all 9 months or does
the vine/fruit have a certain 'life' where it stops growing and begins to
deteriorate? As you can tell, I am a newborn - this is our first year. We
don't even have a contest down here, but we are trying to see how they do so
we can develop some interest with the locals.
Thanks.
