Re: plants
Rocky,
I 've had rough years since 98, so don't count it out. Too much nitro,
fungus, ground hogs. This year I have real nice vines in the 769 and 1007
Brown. The first two pumpkins on each main have just shriveled up. I dunno.
I cut way back on fertilizer. Just using 20-20-20 and alternated with
10-50-10 Peter's soluble plant food weekly foliar and that's it. What cha
think? Anyone? Not cukes, they're under control. A few leaves with gummy
blight, would that cause babies to shrivel. It was hot yesterday 90. I
dunno.
shriveled pumpkins. Don
Warwood,WV
