Through a combination of improved conditions (i.e. in a tunnel) and regular feeding with CANNA Terra Vega and Rhizotonic, growth and appearance of this plant has far exceeded any plants grown to date. Feeding continues at EC 1.8, pH 5.8. The female flower originally selected for pollination was removed in favour of amassing a larger plant. There is a v.small flower in the tip so I am hoping for a pollination in the 16' region by the 10th July. Since my 978 lb pb was pollinated on the 10th July in 2013, I am not over concerned about a few days here or there.
For me it's about having a plant able to support a pumpkin that races out of the blocks and then supporting it with a good feeding schedule.
