As usual I am late this is my 2010 line up to date 2 923 Gerhardt and 1 edger 300 in the ground. I will add 3 plants by the week end. This year I add 1 dump truck load of composted horse manure. Eagle 20 EW, Bifen I/T Pint and Merit 75 WP for Fungicide and insecticide. Jim does this sound familiar?

5 plants in the ground added Vincent-McGill 1170, 923 Gerhardt and another edger300 Lost a 923 Gerhardt to the dog she stepped on the plant and it broke at the stem. My wife told me to save it so I buried the break the plant is young only 4 leaf so I will hope for the best.. Also enclosed plants on 3 sides with hay bails we had a good thunders storm last night and the plants did great no wind damage. This year is looking good so far!

Best pumpkin was a test planted a seed I planted in my regular garden in was from a price last year that only went 150 lb Vincent-McGill 1170 is doing ok planted late plus it rolled over 923 has a split stump but looks like it will make a pumpkin or 2 for seeds Note to self 10.10.10 in the spring with second till with minerals. Plant started seeds in the ground verses a pot if possible. Eagle 20 EW , Bifen I/T, Merit 75 WP worked great so far nice to see dead squash bugs sitting on top of the leaves!
