Re: daily growth


Troy
I've often wondered about what happens when cir. measurements stop after
lets say 60 days.Now you said the inside thickens and the seeds mature.
I'll agree the seeds will mature better when the pumpkin stays on the
vine longer but what or how do you base your statement that the inside
thickens? anyone have an opinion on what happens those 2 to 3 long weeks
of waiting till show time!!!does everyone continue to water?  fertilize?
