							| Sent in my first tissue test this week. With everything going on i am about a week to 10 days late as I usually like my first results back for July 1.  I test at Western Labs in Parma Idaho, John Taberna the owner is great to work with and his lab has tested more giant pumpkin plants than any lab I know of.  If all plants are looking and growing the same I will take 1 leave / Petiole off of each main vine.  I choose the most recently mature leaf ( about the fourth or fifth one back from the tip of the main) |  |  |
