Growing slow


The last week and a half has been a clump of fairly crappy days. Spots of warm weather but nothing consistent. I named the large pumpkin Diane since my last post. I've been hitting the pumpkin pretty heavy with compost tea and kelp. Lots of showers the past few days so there's more than enough H20. I pollenated another female flower and it's grown to about the size of a large grapefruit. It could catch a growth spurt and whip out a ridiculous number-however it's pretty late in the year to start praying for size. Size is made in the early part of a warm year; Im at the tail end of a cold year.
