Re: Ironite
Wayne....hope your growing /selling season was acceptable in the end...after
hearing all the local horror stories about how bad the weather and pumpkin
season was I would be interested in hearing from a pumpkin professional how
the season actually stacked up.Very often down here there's alot of hype near
the selling season to boost up prices.I did notice the lack of staying power
of the pumpkins this year too(...is this a result of the heat or the
drought?) but as far as availability----there were plenty of pumpkins around.
Anyway,glad to have you back full force.
Here's a question I'm sure most on the list would love to hear more
about.Everyone in the know says you have to have all the micros in sufficient
supply and too much can often be worse than too little. I have done a little
research and have asked my local AG.Co-op representatives and haven't gotten
any good or definitive or even a range of target quantities of
micro-nutrients. Is there a guideline we can follow on the major micros?
Now I realize we may be on the cutting edge of science with our specialty
Giant Pumpkins,but there must be a standard chart or something to start out
with? Thanks! Glenn (and thanks with the help of the judging last month!)
