Howdy!
Below is the current status of pumpkin plants and the lengths of their main vines.? It has been a very odd year with very cold temps and I had a heating coil go bad and trash one of my 305 Beachy...but replaced it with a 501 Beachy...
My editor sometimes puts "B"s and "!" when it gets put up on the mailing list...hopefully this looks?ok.....
Here are the June 1st numbers for my plants:
#1?? 1290 Poirier 07????????? -? 84" Main Vine(MV)
#2?? ?843 Heyne Plant #3?? -? 72" MV
#3?? 838 Bhaskaran?????? ?? -? 72" MV
#4?? 772 Poirier 06?????????? -? 60" MV
#5?? 305 Beachy Plant #1 ?- 60" MV
#6?? 843 Heyne Plant #1?? - 48"? MV
#7?? 501 Beachy????????????? - 48" MV
#8?? 826.5 Heyne?????????????- 48" MV
#9?? 843 Heyne Plant #2?? - 36" MV
#10 305 Beachy #2????????? -?24" MV
If you go back to the archives, last year on June 1st my smallest was 87" with my largest was 140"...in 2006 I was 72 and 95" min/max...so this year I am really behind, if you compare.
Good luck to all!
