It's planting day...FINALLY!!!!!

I dug a big pit yesterday and soaked down the planting area with 10-52-10. Along the way the new fertilizer sprayer I bought broke before I used it and the sprinkler I tried also broke. The result was pretty uneven coverage of the area under the greenhouse. And, because I had dug down to the clay, I made a bit of a "bathtub" which caused me to wait until today to plant.

What's that you say? There's a pixelated part of the image? That's right. It's my secret weapon. It's something that I am willing to bet absolutely nobody else uses to grow giant pumpkins. Of course, I am also not sure that it will work. So, I don't want to reveal what it is just yet.
