RE: Slow growth

Robert,
I think 25 to 30 inches on day 10 is a fairly accurate estimate of where you
should be. With 2 days to go I don't think you will have ANY problem
reaching that!

Subject: Slow growth

Hello,
Wondered whether anyone could help. I have a few pumpkins set on my 506 MOH
+
LC? plant. (In the UK)
 Firstly should I choose; the fastest growing or the one with the thickest
stem?
    Secondly, a pumpkin is 8 days since pollination, is 20" OTT a slow
growth?
I ask as I am a beginner and although my plant is quite big the pumpkin
doesn't seem to grow as fast as any from the USA. Could a long spell of rain
be the cause of slow growth?

Thanks
Robert Shepherd.
