Sioce my last post, we have had 2 cool wet days followed by sun and low 70's today. Pumpkins slowed down to just 5# per day. Forecast for next week is sunny, upper 70's for highs and low 50's for morning lows. The shade tarps have come off to get the pumpkins warmed in the day and blankets go on to hold in the heat at night. If the keep the 5# pace up they could hit 900 & 530. I'm hoping they speed up just a little and weigh heavy. I'm not going to add any fertilizer now. I don't want to take a chance of blowing them up.
