Subject: HELP!!!  females aborting


Gang, I do not have a fruit set at all.  The females are all aborting when they 
get pea size.  I have tried covering them with white tables or chairs, using a 
fan with a bottle of frozen ice between the fan and female to keep it cool.  I 
have left the females uncovered like I did last year. One I think I may have 
inadvertently sprayed while doing my foliar.  I just understand what is 
happening.  I am confidant that I will not have a competitive pumpkin  for the 
Oct. weigh-off. What the hell is going on????

Debbie
