The rust fungus is taking hold on the long gourds, probably because of the wet weather. They got foliar and root drench Companion, and will get more AgriFos and Daconil when today's rains are over. The Glasier ribbon vile is now starting to curl up like a pig's tail. I did more surgery on it, but I think I will be keeping the volunteer from last year's Survivor in its place. It will be a bit of a problem because the stump is right next to a row of tomatoes. The McMullen, Globus, Witter-Benson and Foss pumpkins are doing great. I may be pollinating in just a few days. My 862 is going, but a couple weeks behind. The field pumpkins and Clementz watermelons are also looking good.
