The patch for the 150 square foot challenge which measures 3 x 4.65 m. Temporary covered the soil to keep the soil moist and block some weeds. I'll try to grow it completely organic. I'm probably going to grow 1266 Molek

Planted the pumpkins in the hoophouse 20 days after sowing. On the right is 1266 Molek which is the main plant, and on the left a 1069 Wild. The molek has a double leaf but for now the tip looks normal with single leaves.

After i decided to grow the 1266 Molek, the plant got damaged by an unknown animal so i planted two 1243 backups for the 150 square foot patch. Because the soil is warmer now i'm not put back that much.

The 1243 Molek plant is doing well in the 150 sq ft patch. The first pumpkin is still 4 leaves deep in the tip with about 22 secondaries in front so the space for backups is very small.

Except for 2 tertiaries filling the last nodes, the 150 sq ft patch is completely full. The pumpkin is pretty close to the edge but if it's a tall pumpkin i think 1000 lbs can fit in which is 85 lbs more than my PR in 400 sq ft XD

The 150 sq ft pumpkin is doing well at 25 DAP. Everything is still organic without spraying anything on the leaves.

After the slow start of the 150 pumpkin, it never got the gains i hoped for, and now the pumpkin almost stopped for no reason. Around 350 lbs at 45 dap today.

Unfortunately the 150 sq ft pumpkin had a stem split some weeks ago. I tried to save it but 10 days after the split appeared, it reached the cavity. The good thing is that i've learnt a lot and only lost a small pumpkin.
