My Introduction

lastofthemI grew jack-o-lantern pumpkins every year as a kid in Washington state. It was no secret that I loved pumpkin pie and I grew them to make sue we had plenty! One thanksgiving my mom went to start the turkey and noticed all the pumpkin was missing from all the pies and so she started the investigation. Of course, all of us kids replied not me, but with pumpkin pie from ear to ear, yea, it was clear who done it! Twas I!

Day 1 After germination the seedlings grow fast......

The roots grow fast.....and I move them to a bigger pot at day 2 or 3......For competition plants we dont want them to get root bound. I used 4 gallon pots this year.

Slow start to 2009 season.

I've got a lot of work to do before the season starts. This Apr 16 snowstorm will delay that work a few days. Looks like the storm impacted a good chunk of the rocky mountain region.
