Another pumpkin newbie
Hi everyone--just want to say how much I enjoy reading your posts-you pumpkin
growers have your own unique sense of humor I see :) Anyway, I live in upstate
NY and as misery loves company, am glad to read that even Californians are
dealing with crazy, wet weather but persevere none the less!
I still have my plants inside because it has been cold, windy and rainy for
what seems like a month. I planted 15 seeds and 7 have come up. I'm trying to
give most of them away but of course want to keep the best ones for myself :)
Is bigger better in this case? Even though they were all planted at the same
time, there's a significant difference in their growth rates. Some are puny,
some are starting to grow a third leaf.
I started my seeds about 2 weeks ago in seed starting soil after I coated them
in fungicide, which I read somewhere was a good idea. I've been bottom
watering them, letting them soak up water through the peat pots they're in.
Anyway, all advice is welcome!
Tracy
