But there was this in garden also... Est about 300 – 350 kg. Grew in field/garden (not in patch), just for display, and this is a plant that was done nothing to it, small plant, no soil preparation, no watering, no vine burying, no pruning, no fertilizing and feeding, absolutely nothing all season, basically without any care... Just put seed in the soil and left to grow!
In a season like we had this year anyone can grow 700 to 900 lbs (and more, a 1000 pounds) pumpkin without doing anything! It is quite easy when mother nature do it all for you!! ha ha, Lol :-D
The weather is the key… but.. the real skills and knowledge shows in a very challenging years, like we had here in 2015!
Respect to anyone who grows in harsh, demanding environments and climate! That's the real deal.
