I ran the tractor, disking the wheat ground this afternoon. My husband (the Duke) said he would install the misters, then work on his hot rod while I disked. Good deal with me. When the shackle bolt broke on the disk, I came to the house to find the misters not up, but the hot rod was more advanced. We put the misters up together. Tomorrow will add hose clamps. I think he's getting hooked on this pumpkin thing, too. After being sick for almost a month, he's starting to feel better. Also have to get sand in the morning to make pumpkin beds. And new shackle bolts for the disk, and finish disking the wheat ground. Got to ship hogs Wednesday afternoon, that's what he said set him back a few days last week after starting to feel better. Shipping hogs is a lot of work. Hope to have the disking done and maybe some of the barn washed before we go to a South Dakota wedding on Friday.
The pumpkins really seem to approve of the tarps. I hope they like the misters as well. All vine parts not covered in shadiness wilted really bad again today. The pumpkins grew a lot today with the shade, also watered them pretty heavy this morning. And the pig poo tea seems to have given them quite a boost. 838.5 Bhaskaran still growing. Look out, Mo
