Giant Pumpkin Update 6-30-24

[@JoeDc101]

I see you have the tertiary vibes intact. I’ve been trimming mine as soon as they appear. I don’t have the setup like pure soil so mine is growing on grass and I bury vines. Nice work!

[@enriquemartinez8451]

This is badass!

[@Ayla_HotMessGardens]

Fun! I've never grown pumpkins but cannot wait to try next year. I had no idea Casper's got so big. I have seeds and thought it was a small pumpkin. Your setup looks amazing, new subscriber ❤

[@frankpumpkin2350]

My leafs are doing that aswell older leafs aging maybe I'm thinking

[@FloridaGirl-]

Wow! Now that’s some SERIOUS pumpkin growing!

[@gryffin526]

Hey I am trying my first time to grow a giant pumpkin but I am very late to start. I started some seeds do you think I can still grow a sizeable fruit?

[@johnr3603]

U pollinate it and water and fertilize it,grow till it stops or Halloween, baby it and pollinate, good luck…..

[@deeprootacres8843]

Wonderful job!

[@hadleymanmusic]

That's the spread of one plant? Shoot we need about one square mile and 30 caretakers

[@thesouthernpumpkingrower60]

@@hadleymanmusic yes only one plant and one pumpkin.

[@michaelritter6172]

Why not bury your vines?

[@thesouthernpumpkingrower60]

@@michaelritter6172 I live in Kentucky if you bury vines here you won’t have any in a few weeks the heat and humidity will rot them out quick.

[@docrodebaugh]

Barron fruit is a dandy.

[@thesouthernpumpkingrower60]

Thanks doc

[@frankpumpkin2350]

it should go 50 then 60s possibly 70s if it goes down after a week of 50s probably 2000 pounder but if it gets in the 60s and 70s you got a dandy you should get a week of 50s or more if not 2

[@thesouthernpumpkingrower60]

I like the way you think however that’s not generally how things turnout in our climate. I am really envious of your weather. I will get a lot of those bigger numbers but for a shorter timeframe. I have never had a pumpkin grow more then 70-75 days it’s just to hot and humid. It’s July first and I have already had 14 days over 92 degrees.

[@jamesjudson8206]

My leaf edges are doing the same thing.

[@thesouthernpumpkingrower60]

I don’t know what’s causing it.
