Seen some of pumpkinplants most feared enemy today. But i planned on doing a treatment today so it was all good. We used garlic spray two days ago as a deterent and today we used some of more lethal stuff. Both a systemic and contact spray where sprayed. Also found some nasty grubs so along with the spray some grubbex.
Seedlings are doing well and received some compost tea today. The werner seemed to look better today and had grown considerable,,,the 848 mckenzie is a poor seedling and is dwarfed by the vincent mcgill squash,,,we might have to go for the 811.6 if the 848 doesnt speed up soon. The 811 seems very vigourous and beat most of the pumpkins to. Time will tell.

On the pic. a early mothersday present for tina,,,lol. ;)
