It's been a long week! I've been covering the pumpkins w/ blankets & tarps every night, watching the weather, having my sister help w/ uncovering during the days w/ sun! I'm watching everything closely. I've been fighting off aphids! (talstar) I continue to foliar & some drench. Everything is hanging in there & I think they are still growing by looking at them. I'll measure tomorrow. I got some large hardwood pallets for transport & some high density foam for the tops of the pallets. One more week to go! Besides tonights frost threat, the rest of next week looks great until weigh off- Good! Tomorrow I have a patch tour for the local community to come & see the pumpkins. I did it last year too & everyone loves it! lots of pictures, & even more questions!
