Hi,
Well we finally have a little pumpkin starting. It's about the size of a plum but seems very healthy. I noticed that this one was bigger than the other females that failed to start even before the flower opened. Seems like a lot of female flowers are starting to show up now.
Still plenty of growing time left so hopefully we will get a nice pumpkin.
How many pumpkins should I allow to grow on one vine? I don't care about growing a giant but I would like a good size pumpkin we can use for halloween.
If I start to remove some of the new female flowers when should that be done? Should I wait until they flower or just remove them as soon as I see them?
Thanks for any tips.
Steve
