RE: pumpkins DIGEST V1 #515


I messed up big time. 
I left my newly germinated seedlings in a "closed" 
(Un-vented), greenhouse for two days. They severely wilted and look awful.
However, a couple of them are slowly rebounding and sprouting primary
leaves.

Should I toss them out and start anew or is there a chance of them still
producing strong, healthy plants? 

p.s. I already started new seedlings just in case I made a booboo.

This will be my first year of growing giant pumpkins. I feel like I know
what I'm doing after reading everything on pumpkin growing I could find.
I.E. "Pumpkin Nook", "Dill's Atlantic Giant", and "Big Pumpkins.com".
 
I started four seeds in peat pots 7 days ago.

1327.5 Dueck
1081.0 Wentzell
820.9 Biga 
648 Bhaskaran 

I was so nervous that I did something wrong that I gently dug one up today
to see if it was growing. It was, so I pushed it back down into the peat
pot. 
I can't wait until they come up!
