This is my 1916 Baron, sorry about the dark picture, worked in patch till dark! (Been there?!!) ha ha! Anyways, pulled all three of my pumpkins away from stump to straighten vines out. My pumpkins are just starting to take off - thinking my water timer system is not just a set it & forget it system! programmed it & let it go without periodic soil moisture checks. Humid days ,nights,rain,ect. Long story short, tissue test indicated nutrients where either not there,or not being absorbed? Talked with another grower and we think my soil was locked up from being too wet. Makes sense. I'm currently backing off on my watering, hand watering when I do, and foliar feeding to get the nutrients into the plant. My plants and gains are already on the rebound.
