Hi to everyone!
Need urgent help on trying to save this pumpkin!
The plant is a 1495; one month ago we had a stump foaming on this plant, the pumpkin was aged 45 days by that time. The stump was cut off. Now, after one month the main vine has started dripping liquid again. Here's the pic of the damaged vine's section. The pumpkin is still 13 feet away from that point.
Anyone has an idea about how to stop this problem? To see the photos please go to Growers diary page, - Zuccabiodinamica . Thank you

Stefano, è solo una pensata del momento, ma prova appena tagliato il tralcio a mettere un contenitore con acqua e amuchina, facendo si che riesca ad assorbirne un poco, magari disinfetta i canali, non credo sia dannosa, visto che molti la usano per pulire dopo lo stump foaming, ma prendila con le pinze, è solo una pensata....!
