I took the advice of you guys and washed my leaves down with water.
And today ...
Landlord's 25-30 pound cat Punkie jumped up into the 'foxhole' atop my 1385
fruit and began scratching his name in its tender skin.
I remembered reading about healing such cuts with 'juice' extracted from
another pumpkin. I had just removed a small fruit from the 1097.
BUT ...
It had already gotten a wee bit soggy. I cut it in half and used it anyway.
Should I have used a sound cull instead, or does it matter?
