I thought today was a day off from the patch but I spent about 2 more hours out there today. The vines grew about 15 plus inches in just 15 hours so I had to move my wind fence out again and worked the soil out 3 more feet around both plants. My vulture friends were at the patch this morning sitting on my hoophouse main spar and crapping on my plants this did not make me very happy but the are gone now. I wish my pumpkins would grow a little more but it is still early. I am culling the close fruit on the 998 in favor of the 3rd one down I hope it is a good choice.
