Well, everybody else is wrapping up for the year and I'm just getting started. Growing giant pumpkins in Arizona is a challenge. Our state record was set in 2007 by Ben Bushier at 469 lbs. On January 1 we will go to ground and start Operation 501. There are three of us going to start pumpkins in our gardens. Used a broad fork to open up the ground and have started to add amendments. (Yep, we sent soil samples to Western Labs and are working off their recommendations). Looking forward to the experience and hopefully, since you all won't be starting until we're almost done - maybe you'll be willing to help with some advice.
