Pumpkins got a shot of tea last night. Weeds are a problem but we are ahead of them for a change. All pumpkins have female flowers that will pollinate in less than a week. The 1004 Mohr is the problem child this year. The double vine grows like a roller coaster, looping up and down. And it kinks at each loop. Iset double females at one node, one on each side. I'm not sure how to handle this one other than to just let it do what it wants. The long gourds have the first male flowers blooming. Weather has turned cool again. High today only forecast for 71 with clouds and wind.
