Here's a shot of the word that every pumpkin grower fears, frost. This picture of my Bronco windshield was taken around 6 AM this morning. It was a long night for me but thanks to spraying down the unprotected plants with water every 1/2 hour or so by hand, it looks like they all made it through just fine. You know it's cold out when the 55 degree tap water steams as it comes out of the hose LOL. Despite the cold temps, the Handy plant was a balmy 53 degrees when this picture was taken so hopefully Marshmallow is still growing.

Keep those plants warm and watch out for the F word!
