I cut away the leaves giving the Frantz stump (vine meets dirt) part shade so now its sitting in full sun. The mush is still there and had to scrape it away till I felt hard stump. The main stem area is still solid but this mush is annoying me. The other plants are doing well with good looking main vine stumps. Pumpkins are all doing well the Marchand I feel has stopped growing. The two pumpkins set on the Frantz are growing slow and steady and the main vine set is now catching up with the side vine set so will see who gets bigger faster. The Mitchell set is moving along slow but sure. The Lishness just keeps putting on weight its getting big enough now to earn a spot under a shade structure. I have been using a 5 gallon bucket of water to measure how much water the plants get and today I gave the plants 15 gallons each so I hope thats enough water. I will see if this new method of watering makes a difference on size and weight gain. I will take pics soon but hopefully I can first nip this stump prob in its but. Have a good day all and grow em big.
