Well, today was definitely hot, and tomorrow is supposed to get even hotter. I got some major leaf burn on one side of the plant--found that strange because it doesn't get that hot in our neck of the world. New young leaves hit pretty hard--cut out about three, and there is about 10 affected. I watered a bit heavier today and will set up shade for tomorrow. Most of the pollinated pumpkins (9 so far) look like they are beginning to grow. The one that is growing noticeably faster than the others is also in the worst spot on my hill. I'll wait until they get volleyball size to begin culling. No new pollinations yet, and none tomorrow as far as I can see.
