Newbie with a question
Hi!
I have just joined the list and was hoping someone could hold my hand
and give me a hint as to a good source for seed. My daughter refuses to
let go of the Rouge d'Etampes (French for incredible productive)
pumpkins we grew last year, so we are still decorated for Halloween.
This is fine with me, but we would like to set our sights somewhere
else. I was hoping to acheive new successes this year with A Big Pumpkin
as opposed to A Prolific Pumpkin. Would someone let me know of a good
place to buy seed? It would be nice to grow a pumpkin that was bigger
than my daughter (35 lbs.) and then slaughter it for Thanksgiving for
everyone in a tri-county area.
I have also moved to an area that is HOT in summer, which will be a
new experience for me. I was hoping to get some strategies on how to
keep a pumpkin plant alive in HOT weather. Any and all advice will be
taken under consideration as I haven't a clue what I'm doing.
Can anyone tell me anything about milk feeding a pumpkin?
Thanks for your time!
