However I had a visitor in the patch that decided to have a munch on the plant. I lost the main vine and many secondaries too. I was not sure what to do and just left it for a week or too. I decided to carry on and have pollinated 3 all however are on secondary vines but that's all I got for this year so we will see. Pics will follow soon.   Tuesday, July 26 View Page Set lasts week sidevine but my only option.. let’s see what it does   Thursday, August 4 View Page Well here it is my only shot this year for a pumpkin.. it’s growing that’s all I can say.. doubt it will be near last year but hay hoo.. love the plant healthy and grows well..
