Wow - 4 days away camping and the 1142 van Kooten has taken off (thanks to the awesome weather on the west coast). The vine is about 8 feet long with some nice secondaries - long enough to stake down and bury. It looks like the main vine had split earlier (didn't even notice that) so I've made it into another secondary. It doesn't seem to have affected the main vine at all. The first pumpkin has shown up about 6 feet down - it obviously won't be used but still nice to see. Another week and I'll have to take off the tent.
