new year update.
the vine is doing very well.
the stump was grown out at 45* and trimmed off all secondaries and leaves to a meter out. it is nice and smooth and no places for bugs or disease to get in.
the vine has had the secondaries placed into position to protect the main and give a good growth pattern.
the pumpkin was fertilized on the 1st of Jan at 16ft out.
all is going well.
have not done any foliar fert at all.
the 6 months of ground prep is doing its job.
my watering is a fraction of last year.... no soggy roots
the kiss system is working
keep it simple stupid....... thats me
