That;s what I had to do. I noticed some powdery mildew forming on my Burpee
Prizewinner which just happned overnight, I guess. It was already evening, so
by the time I got back it was dark. Luckily the moon was full and really
bright, it was bright enough to see where I was going and the pumpkin leaves,
etc. I sprayed everything with the new Soap Sheild "fixed copper" fungicide,
which is supposed to work better than any other copper fungicide, and breaks
down better so it doesn't kill off earthworms. The stuff is this weird blue
color and doesn't smell at all, really. I hope it works as good as it is
supposed to!
Oh and the Prizewinner is actually still growing slowly, even though it has
been orange for a couple weeks. It turned orange at about 72 inches. It is now
79 inches!
It grew an inch in circ. the last 2 days.
My Wallace that I was going hyper about "stopping growing" has resumed growing
some. It grew 3 inches the last 2 days. I don't know why it stopped for that
one day. It was weird. It is taunting me just to scare me. It is screwing with
my mind. It knows. IT REMEMBERS. IT IS AFTER ME! I KNOW IT IS.
