Hi all,
I'm a new pumpkin grower and would like to know if anyone has grown one here
in Orange County, Ca. I have talked to the piratepumpkin, got seeds from Chris
and Zach and they all have been great.
I grew one about 100 lb. last season, but the heat(90+F) , white flys and
fungis was to much. I lost the original leafs about 1/2 way threw the growing
season. Would shading the whole plant with 50% shade help? Is there insectides
and fungicides that I can get at HOME DEPOT? Does anybody know someone in
Orange County that could help?
Thanks,
Brian
