The monsoons seem to be over. We are getting female blossoms on the 1068 Papez and 1096.5 Privitera. There still should be time to hit the 1000# plateau if the weather holds and we don't get the disease that usually hits after the pumpkins set. This morning I applied Merit, Alliette and daconil to try to keep the bugs and disease at bay. Jacob did a lot of weeding. Tomorrow I will use some permetrhin dust to keep the bugs off until the Merit can start working. Critters and damping off have thinned our long gourd patch down to just one plant. Maybe I can get some pictures posted soon.
