We knew that when we moved back to Vancouver Island, we had found our pot of gold...who knew it would be in the pumpkin patch.

Our 1126 Dixon continues to grow and has gained 254 lbs in the first 2 weeks of September, so still about 18 lbs a day. We can keep this one plugged in until October 12th which is a full 3 weeks away. I haven’t needed to water in the past 10-12 days but we are headed into dry and warm spell for a week to 10 days and I might give the plants some more TKO, some liquid 0-0-25, RAW 0-0-50 and now Richmond Dave has introduced us to MPK (mono potassium phosphate). In reality I will likely try and give the plants a well balanced drenching or two including some mild nitrogen since both our last tissue tests showed a steady decline in Nitro. I’ll also try and give a last foliar feeding or 2, plants are super healthy.
