Watching how the vine responds to the upper limits of fertilizer feeding. I feel like from here on in; this is the time to keep the petal to the metal in terms of food and water. Get it close to the upper limit, watch and read the leaves and pumpkin growth to know when to feed again. Diversify the feeding type between compost tea, foliar, granular…. That reminds me, I need to bury 1 more wow packet 4 nodes after the fruit near the termination…. Maybe this weekend.

Leaf lip curl evident along the main. Looking like a emo kids hair lol. Dark coloration on new secondary growth, slight wrinkles. She screams well fed, this is my “maximum” baseline. Planning to water 2” every 48 hrs in this heat, the next 10 days are all above 100F.
