            | GrimReapersPumpkin | Petersburg, Mi | This will be my first real try at growing bushel gourds. Do the gourds have tap roots at the leaf nodes like the giant pumpkins or can I put down weed barrier down to control the weeds? 
 Thanks

            | Smoky Mtn Pumpkin (Team GWG) | sevierville, Tn | i grew mine on weed barrier and they did not root at the nodes. i was told they do root but probally only on soil.  | 3/16/2015 6:37:14 AM | 
		
            | GrimReapersPumpkin | Petersburg, Mi | How was your results? Do you think it hampered growth?  | 3/17/2015 3:59:48 PM |

 I will be happy to send you(or anybody else) a brief synopsis on how I grew the 279.5 bushel gourd.
