I cut the plant out today and put it on the compost pile. I also deconstructed all the plastic and poles. On retrospect, it was such a dry summer I didn't even need all the plastic covering the plant. Oh well. Here is a picture of me with my two pumpkins. The big one is estimated at 752 lbs and the smaller one further away is estimated at under 500lbs. I will be working on the soil all next week digging and extending the patch. I might have someone who can give me some good horse manure (aged stuff--a couple of truck loads) only problem is I need to get it somehow. I will be adding a ton of leaves hopefully (I have huge maple trees around my lot).
