Here is a picture of the plant and pumpkin. Everything looks good leaf wise before the pumpkin. I was noticing a slight mosaic look to the leafs before I set the kin, but they would look a healthy dark green by the time they were fully developed. The pumpkin itself is fine, but everything I tried to set after this guy suffered blossom end rot. The more I think on it, the more this seems like a deficiency. I have one secondary still growing behind the kin, and it's new growth is not looking like it has the mosaic pattern nearly as bad as the new growth post pumpkin. I bought some Korean fertilizers which have manganese and calcium supplements, as well as a bag of calcium. What calcium compound it is, I don't know. I'll go easy with all amendments and foliar feed them, and hope for the best. I can't complain so far- 20 DAP 62" CC 46" SS 46" FB 154 OTT. Despite a foreign environment, soil which who knows what's in it besides what I've added, and my first year using real genetics (1456 Bryson) and growing knowledge...
