That's cool my friend, Keep the idea in mind though some growers have
increased there production rate by hundreds of lbs. using really expensive
misting systems.the rainbird system will save hundreds.Just a note in case
you want a misting type watering system in the future.
Have you had any problem with powdery mildew by over head watering???
This year at times I had only 13 leaves healthy on a plant at a time so
yes that kind of slowed the growth even though I had a pumpkin grow to over
200 lbs in thirteen days after pollination. The weight caused it to roll
foreword and cracked 3/4 of the primary vine away from the pumpkin and all
but stopped the growth I still got it to 247LBS which is pretty good for a
beginner. I am looking foreword to finding at least a temporary relief of
powdery mildew do you have any ideas.
Well hope you have wonderful luck next year and grow em BIG
