Bill,
I am not a pro, but will attempt to help...........some prune off the male
flowers as any growth saved and sent to the pumpkin might help also the
best reason is won't attract insects. Some prune off tendrils ..the curly
balistic things.........i myself don't its hit or miss...might take out a
few......is this holding me back.........I don't know..............My
feelings are the less open wounds.......the less troubled spots.........but
i am not a world record holder..........Brock .......
