Update from my patch. Plant is adding a lot of growth now with the amount of rain we have been getting. After a slow start this year due to the cold; this plant is one of the most aggressive I've ever grown and probably the biggest for end of June timeframe. Lots of baby kins but I keep picking them off; want to get a bit more growth out of the secondary vines. I am planning to pollinate a pumpkin sometime around July 16th; maybe before.
Due to my limited growing area; I am limiting the amount of secondary vines on the plant's left side. The main vine will be guided to take a right turn towards the camera. The majority of the secondary vines will be grown on the plant's right side. Almost like a flag-pattern but not quite.
