well, discovered my first bonehead error of the season. Somehow my vine tips must have gotten hit by some of my manganese spray 3 days ago. Not sre how, must have drifted with the wind since I avoid the tip area. All of my secondaries have burned leaves and tips on new growth:( gggggrrrr. lol Never made that error before, still a little confused how it happened. I didn't notice until after I pruned my trieteries too!!!! lol I cut two of the vines off and will let a small trietery finish the last remaining area, but many of the trieteris got fried too. Gonna be some ugly leaves in the last 150 sq foot of the patch.

On a brighter note, pumpkin on the 980 is day 14, growing steady and looking very orange and pretty. Hope she goes big:)
