Worked in the patch for the better part of the day yesterday, I was able to get a lot of long awaited work completed.

Did some punning of overgrown secs & Terts.

Completed putting shade up over my 2 best primary pumpkins.

Put down some durable weed block with a nice layer of sand underneath the pumpkins.

Fertilized 18,18,21 water soluble. (Note these are the first ferts since i stopped at the beginning of pollination time.

Applied 4.5 ounces of 1.47% implorid Bayer T&S. (Note I applied this a little early, my last application was 4 weeks ago. I found a tone of SVB eggs on my zucunni plants, So i deceided to hit it early. I will also being applying the ORtho (bifen) on the 7 day mark now just to be safe.)
