At the 2012 Shoreline Jeff and I were talking to Cali Halbert about the foaming stump problems from the past 2 years. He asked us about our patch size. We told him about 500 square feet and that we were growing 2 plants. At this point he asked �Well are you growing large fruit or Giant Pumpkins?!� We had this discussion on Easter as we were walking around the patch discussing the foaming stump situation. Jeff and I both decided we don�t want giant vegetables�.WE WANT GIANT PUMPKINS!!!! Thanks for the advice Cali. At this point we knew we had to start getting the patch ready to go. We did a drainage test and saw we had pretty much no drainage. In addition Jeff and I talked about how we were going to change our soil composition to increase drainage.
