									I�m going to grow two bushel gourd plants this year.  This will be my third year growing in the same place and I started to get disease problems last year.  I had gummy stem blight very bad by the end of the season.  I decided to solarize the soil this spring before planting in it.  I did this at my old house about ten years ago and grew my largest AG ever following the solarization.
