  • In this episode I walk through the patch and share what happened over the last week growing Giant Pumpkins. I explain how I train the vines when you're expecting big growth and what I use as a growing platform. I also check in on the plant that was attacked by a gopher!

    You seem to be a force to be reconed with this year. Your plants are looking great and great genetics as well. Good luck friend, hope you do well at the scales.

    Plants are looking great and the fruit are about to take off. Smart move on the tissue test.

      Fertilizing, nutrients and staying balanced is a hard one to master. I’m not there yet. But data helps. EC, pH, tissue tests, etc.

    Plants are looking great. Hopefully they push out some big pumpkins for you this year. I am assuming those are timelapse cameras you have next to at least a couple of your pumpkins. If so, what brand are they? I have been researching timelapse cameras and am hoping to make a purchase soon.

      Actually they are just security cameras that I used when I went on vacation. I am also in the market for a time lapse camera but haven’t done my research so let me know what you find 😂

      @@dawson_acres I am currently looking at ATLI Eon, but plan to research more. Cost is part of the reason I am looking at this camera.

    have you ever considered growing one with the fruit placed in a giant pool of water? I wonder if it would turn out perfectly round since it would be suspended in the water and not sort of crushed by its own weight.

      @@ghidfg it’s a cool idea but unfortunately I think the pumpkin would rot if left in water. They need to be kept as dry as possible. But it would still be fun to try.
