We are using a broadfork this year to deep loosen the soil, as the vines approach. Once I’ve raked small trenches for the vines to settle in, I’m going back and using the broadfork and I’m really happy with the results. It’s labour intensive, glad we are team growers Andrea and I. When the soil is the right moisture, this is an easy tool to use but I’m afraid not all plants will get this royal treatment. Need more secondaries before setting any pumpkins, weather is gonna kick it up back to normal after a chilly June so far and plants are in high gear so that will all happen soon.
