Alabama here, mine were already hit with powdery mildew. 😢
Gary , I have 1 sprayer 1 gallon HDX plastic. I last used it for Glyphosate Can I use it for baking soda spray?
I'm growing Seminole pumpkins here in Florida. 1st time growing them. I've been told that they are practically fool proof to grow here, as far as any other pumpkins… i must be worse than a fool because i can not for the life of me get any female flowers to take.😢 they keep aborting the little tiny pumkins… ive even tried to use the male flowers to hand fertilize…. I'm probably going to just give up.🤷♀️💔
Good info! Love how you showed just how you water and feed even if it was just a demonstration. I never know if I am hand watering enough or not! This gave me a better idea! Thank you for thinking of that!
Ahh, I have pumpkins to plant and this video helps! Thank you!
Thank you Gary!!
I have baby pumpkins and hav been training it to climb should I just leave it be and let it spread?
Have you tried milk for powdery mildew? Seems to hold off PM.
