Used only neem and copper and one other oil until now. Added one non organic fungicide today....the organic oils are harsh on the leaves even at low dosages but mostly effective.

Success! I moved it 3 inches off its stem/vine that was kinking to a 90 degree angle. Some cracks were forming. First time trying to get all the proper information from a disjointed hobby.

Held together with caulking.....added 200 lbs after the split....feels more solid than any of my previous pumpkins. Usually I can wobble them a bit, as if they would go light to chart. Not this guy. Too bad he's disqualified. Still a pr on a 23x23 garden.

Only 90 lbs last week but I was gone on vacation. This week I'm back on the fertilizer....so a week gone hurt it. Very green still and little aging for my typical grow.

Over a 1000 and doing 17 lbs a day. A pr and easily going heavy based on my precious ag kins. Not sure what to do. It's disqualified but should I try to weigh it for giggles? It's skin makes a pimply teenager look like a model.
