Here is Reba's stem, now opened up nice and wide so the fan can blow air into there. To the right of the stem is where I had to dig out some rotting flesh last week. It has healed beautifully though - peroxide is a miracle worker! While the pumpkin is putting up a great fight, I wish I could say the same for the plant! Aphids have exploded all over the place and I had to clean up a least 6 mushy spots along side vines today where leaves had been pruned off. I've been doing a lot of pruning lately just to maximize air flow and keep an eye on all the vines. With the pumpkin no longer growing, I think a healthy vine is way more important than a lot of leaves.
