Here is the newly uncovered Eaton, after it's pruning which I decided was necessary. After some research and thought, I decided that one half of the double vine had to go. Ultimately there will only be one pumpkin growing on the entire plant, so the other half of the vine would just be growing vegetation and robbing the growing fruit of nutrients and water. I took off the half that was sticking up like a serpent head in a previous picture, it had fallen to the ground under it's own weight and the stem was kinked, kind of like what happens to a hose sometimes. Not broken, but not ideal either, so I decided to leave the other half. However, when I made the pruning cut I ran into another predicament.......
