Gave the pumpkins a shot of Extreme Blend last night before the rain came in. I also added a little 15-30-15 as the plants just weren't as dark green as I like. I found one casualty from last week's windstorm. The main on the 1351 Trumm got rolled over and suffered a 6" long lengthwise split. Too bad as this is the fastest growing plant and has the longest main. We will try to doctor it with daconil and somehow patch the split so it doesn't collect water. If that doesn't work we will train a secondary for a new main. I pickied the first female blossom off the 1209 Courson as it was only 18" from the stump. I took the camera down to the patch for pictures, but the batteries were dead. By the time I was done applying the mico/beneficial bacteria/orgainc fertilizer mix and burying mains it was too dark from the clouds for good pictures. Maybe tonight I can get some and post Thursday.
