Added another 6 wheelbarrows full of good black compost from the neighbors compost bin. Dumped it on the back of the mound. It seems you can never have enough of the stuff, and it is funny how the plant will send out roots no matter where you put it. Hard work wheelbarrowing it uphill for about 200metres--good excercise though. Will have another female to pollinate today about 9 feet out on the second main. This one is not on a hill and looks to be perpendicular to the vine, so I am hoping it is a fast grower--I'd like to set it and keep this one as one of the two pumpkins I'll grow to maturity. Hard work is just about done on the patch--now I'll sit back and water and prune and watch em grow--hopefully! Pictures to follow soon.
