Good morning
Sandi
Jon,
That sounds fun. How about posting a picture? When will
your pumpkin mature?

I will give free seeds to the top 3 guesses of
weight
for my largest pumpkin. (only 1 guess per person)
HOwever,
guesses under 500 lbs are automatically
disqualified. So if I don't
get to at least 500 no
one wins any free seeds. LOL But you
probably
wouldn't want any if it doesn't reach that level.
Here is
some basic info to guide your guess:
This is my first year
Seeds: 697
dill
Feeding: 15-30-15, then 20-20-20
Vines: Burying for tap
roots, trimming off side vines
at 6 to 8ft and burying the
end
Pollination: by hand, 3 to 5 pumpkins
Culling: All but 1 on each
plant
THere's a lot of other stuff I already know as well
but
won't go on. Feel free to share any advice you
want to
share.
I'm serious about doing this if I get enough
replies.
