I have several pumpkins pollinated. Some I self pollinated. Some are open pollinated. I will give them week or so to see which is the best growing and cull from there.

I also have a lot of side growth that is reaching the limits of my area. I will have to start dead-heading some secondaries soon.

I purchased 2 sprinklers on adjustable tripods. I have them on opposing corners of my patch, so they both cover the whole plant. I have been using them in afternoon to cool the plant down. Temps have been in the high 80's with full sun.
