Hot and dry for the last 10 days. We had a brief surprise rain cell cool things off this evening, so it’s time for some maintenance work.
The first few side shoots have laid down, we will work on straightening their vining direction and getting the first nodes into dirt along with attending to “spicing up” the main with the special mix. I want to bury a Wallace slow release fert pack every 5 foot along the main vine in addition to the geanular nitrogen, preferably locating one just up and downstream of the fertilized pumpkin but we’ll see how that idea really pans out.
Third round of compost tea is ready to start bubbling, time to really soak the entire plot with water, tea, and systemic insecticide to anticipate it filling in. I plan to be pollinating fruit in …. 2 weeks at this pace?
