This is my pumpkin “pit”. I call it a pit as I bury our pumpkins here after Halloween. Then in the spring hundreds of sprouts pop up. I pick and pick them out until the biggest plants take over. Once I have 3-4 large started sprouts I feed them heavily and then flush the next day. Like magic they explode with growth. These guys were just seedlings about a week and a half ago. They seem to double in size weekly. Can’t wait to see them finished: these are 15-25 lb variety. I also have big max pumpkins planted in my other beds they reach up to 100lbs with proper irrigation.
