Helen's first flower does not want to quit. Pushing up from the buried vine. My experience is that first flowers are not the best pumpkins and not worth pollinating. . . But I'll give it a chance. Also a problem as we're on the slope here, and the vine is tightly rooted at every leaf junction, and the vine is growing straight, all a recipe for the pumpkin breaking off. Anyway, I'll leave it for the time being. It's all one big experiment.
