RE: New look on old problem
Kevin, aka: daddy,
Methinks you have not been getting enough sleep lately. An electric
blanket on cement, under a pumpkin (how many 100 lbs?), in the weather.
Say, can you eat fried pumpkin??
Besides, you guys down there are such "SANDBAGGERS!
How are mom and little Zane?

Hey List
OK here we go back to the putting your pumpkins to bed nice and warm
thing i
started a few weeks ago. this year everything on the main vine of my 695
Handy
Aborted but I did think allot as the main vine hit 24 feet and i had to
turn
the main vine off my patio. since it was very dry and cool there with a
direct
power source i though of setting the new pumpkin on 2" stiraphome to
insulate
it from the concrete and on top of the stiraphome lay an electric
blanket. I
could use it like a Reptile heat mat during the day and then wrap the
pumpkin
up at night and just keep it on the coolest setting. Now remember I
haven't
had the best years ever so if I lost one it wouldn't brake any pattern
so it was
just an idea what do any of you think ??? would love some ideas !! Take
care
and keep growing em BIG !!!
Kevin Smith ........ watching Zane Grow !!
