RE: pumpkins DIGEST V1 #183

SVB in the patch. I have two plants; 759.5 Bhaskaran, and a 963.5 Tanner.
While inspecting them I found a bore hole in the vine of the Tanner. It
wasn't there 3 days ago and as I poked it with a twig the tail end of a grub
appeared. I got that thing out, sprayed the vine and loosely wrapped it with
landscaping fabric. I then inspected the 759.5 Bhaskaran and felt a soft
spot on the underside of the vine. I then did some heavy duty pesticide
spraying on the vine. I came back 2 hours later and found 3 grubs lying on
the ground next to the vine. Should I have slit the vine and looked for more
of them?

Doug,

Have basically 2 really going well (upper 20s in lbs/day)...but getting some
cold nights and things are slowing down a bit...so hopefully will get out of
the upper 40s and into the 60s again at night...which is the key as
prolonged cool weather will stunt them.? 
Here are the top 2:

My 670 Daigle is 325lbs on day 28. (307lbs on day 27)

My 305 Beachy?is 297lbs on day 27.

I'll try to get a better update soon...just haven't had the time to get
pictures and my web page updated for 2007. :-)

Take care and good luck!
