Pumpkin garden planted

Post by Harry »

We planted the 40X100 pumpkin garden on Saturday. Then on Sunday we had a nice slow misty rain most of the day. Plants are standing up to take sunshine today. 80 plants were put in, should be a bumper crop come fall. :thumbsup: :peace: Harry

You guys are a hoot. We put in a big patch so the grandkids can come over in the fall and pick them. It’s always a good time with a cookout and a few libations. :cheers: :peace: Harry

I cultivated the garden today with the Troybilt that has been repowered with a OHV 13hp Honda engine. It runs so sweet and works up my heavy clay soil fine. It is a bit slow but I always love to take it out of the tractor barn and use it. :peace: Harry

Looks like the pumpkin garden survived the approximate 2” of rain we got. That’s how much the water level rose in my pool. Already have a few baseball size pumpkins out there. Kinda early but it is what it is. :clap: :peace: Harry
