I can see the appeal in at least trying. We're planting on mulch rows this week in 100f heat. We wait until sweet corn season winds down to plant hard squash and pumpkins. We're not early to market, but pretty tired by this time of year.
I like the system , next year I plans on planting pumpkins and watermelon into crimped rye . But my question is , what pre emergent are you using . You said Sandea post , Sandea is great post on pigweed but zero on lambs quarter . Just curious what your whole chemical processes is ? Thank you , love your videos .
I see you’re planting small gourds. We’ve had a problem in the past with spraying reflex and Dual over them, causing some damage.wondering if you were going to spray the same thing over them as you were spraying over your jack-o’-lanterns we decided to transplant our smaller stuff, like gourds and little pumpkins and spray before Transplanting just wondering what you were doing
I sprayed strategy for my pre. I have used prefix before and didn't notice any adverse effects on the gourds but it may have and I didn't pay enough attention. I don't think you'll go wrong with dual, but reflex may be too hot for them. Thanks for watching!
Do you think your poly planter will plant in rolled rye?Also are you using a pumpkin plate? Thanks again
I'm certain it would, if the ground was soft. I'm just using the standard plate. Monosem planters do a superb job of singulating.

Are the pliers a small version of snap on pliers if not what are they they look stout built
They are snap on
I like those poly planters. I have one I use for sweet corn
I'd love to have a 5" spacing wheel for mine
If I did that here by october the deer would have every pumpkin ruined.

I've got a video about pumpkin herbicide plan. This time I burned down with Gramoxone + Strategy
How close are you planting Kratos?
20" x 60"

What do you spray to control the horsenettle in crop?
Post plant your options are very limited. Gramoxone will kill it in your burn down if it's mixed and applied right
