Applied donocil tonight and spectracide 8/1. Less leaves affected by squash vine borers. Decrease in mildew on the Papez Plant. All main and side vines terminated. I have 2 pumpkins on the Bailey plant 1 side 1 main. This plant was the slowest to grow. On the Papez I have 3 pumpkins 2 sides and 1 main. Finally on the Gayle plant I have 1 main and 2 side vines pumpkins.
I know main pumpkins are optimal how ever the largest Gayle fruit is on a side vine it was pollinated 7/14. the rest of the other pumpkins in the patch were pollinated 7/13-7/24. Will see how they all do the next week or so.
