I need to take a chill pill. The numbers aren’t good on the pumpkins but it’s not a race. The plants are twice the size as last years so shouldn’t the pumpkins be bigger? Well no. I had about 20 tertiarys on each plant and 8 secondary’s on the 2051. They were taking most of the energy. They were growing at least a foot a day because each tertiary or secondary was 3-6 ft long! Everything has been terminated so the pumpkins will hopefully respond now. No more growing plant! That’s why I shouldn’t of gone away for a week lol.
