I have been applying Florel to all of my “keepers” 48 hours after pollination. It needs to be mixed to 100 ppm in distilled water. I use a spray bottle to apply it to the fruit. I leave the blossom on the fruit until after the Florel is applied so the mixture does not get onto the “lobes”. I have not been using Florel on my back-up fruit (the next female on the vine which I would consider growing that has been pollinated). Florel will extend the time the fruit is in the cell division stage…which hopefully means that it will form more cells so that when it moves into the cellular expansion stage there will be more cells to expand resulting in a bigger pumpkin!
