Believe it or not when pumpkins are putting on these huge gains they need very little food, just water. My patch has not had any amendments for weeks and apart from fusarium the plants and most importantly roots look very good.
At the moment watering is all about the pumpkins so each plant gets 26 gallons of water 5 times in a 24 hour period. This works out at about 130gallons a day which will be reduced in the coming weeks as the pumpkins slow down.
I hope this is useful and enjoy the ride, good or bad with me. I’m certainly finding it very lonely not having Stuart by my side.
