> That is why Pumpkins are often pale green early in the season then jumping
to dark green after 1 or 2 days above 80. In poor heat conditions you must
back off on feeding to prevent tender growth that will not tolerate heat &
sun when it comes back. Windows help a great deal in poor heat conditions.
My Pumpkins are vining and are in a make shift greenhouse made of storm
windows. As long as there is sun they stay vigorous.

Seriously though you US growers do have some funny weather, here in the UK
its just atrocious normally except in summer which occurred today. BTW my
AGs are now developing first true leaves and roots growing out of pot. Too
early here for planting out yet so some potting on to do. Happy growing, Jim
