Yesterday the temperature was in the high 80's. Forecast for severe t-storms during the night. Covered the pumpkins with 5-gallon buckets to protect them from possible 1/2 dollar size hailstones. At four this morning, I woke up, listening to wind, heavy rain, but no hail. As I lay there, I realized that I had planted every last one of the pumpkins 180 degrees off, with the desired direction of growth toward the FIRST TRUE LEAF! OH, NO! Got up early this morning, almost 3" of heavy rain. Went to the garden in muck up over the foot of my boots, and turned them all 180 degrees. Hope for the best.
