that we do not get our first frost of the season for a few more weeks, as the very first pumpkin I have ever grown, is filling out by leaps and bounds. I would really like to see this one mature.
I have cut the vine back, pulled off any remaining flowers and also pulled off nearly all the other small pumpkins, so the plant's energy will go into this one pumpkin.
I can't complain that I have not had enough tomatoes this year. There are still many unripe fruit on the vines, and if they do not ripen before it frosts, it will not matter. I have eaten tomatoes every day for weeks now, and never get tired of them.

I've bought two l;ots of pumpkin seeds for my garden ... I'm going to have to be a bit creative as to where I can put them but that will sort itself out I hope .....
ReplyDeleteprocuring already rotted horse manure might be more difficult .....
Anyway - one lot is to eat ..the other is to have some fun and see how large I can get it ...
McD tells me I need to get out more :O)
