Healthy plants, growing slowly. We had a poor weather, spring and a good part of summer has been grey, wet and pretty cold here. Nothing we can do to improve that factor. 17C was the average air temp. Soil temp struggled to rise up which is affecting plant growth. I spent countless hours of weeding...burying vines and many more little things to check daily. Despite, those sad conditions, I keep concentrate all season on the plant. The positive note is the roots barrier. It s working perfectly to stop voles and moles. This is only the second season I m growing giant pumpkins without having this issue. The first time was back in 2009 when I grew the 1611lb ER at this time.
