Not all hope is lost however. I have this gal going at the moment. 8.5" cc. at 7 DAP (I think -- notebook out in the patch right now.)
So far it looks good. It only put on .5" overnight, so I hope it will be doing better tomorrow morning.
It will be my last hope for the season since I won't be able to get another female flower for several weeks I think. With all the new flowers aborted it could be awhile.
I don't know. If the plant starts to pick back up, I might try one more time. I would be ecstatic with even a 200lb pumpkin this year. It would be worth it just to go through the motions to learn more for next year's attempt. *sigh* It doesn't look good this year however.
Maybe the soil test will shed some light that will affect my decision. And of course... Maybe this one will take! :) I'm keeping my optimism very low though. It's been a newbie struggle this year for sure.
