News flash -- pumpkins drink milk






That is a pumpkin IV


This pumpkin is over a foot long.  It is a Big Max.  I have been turning it every week so that it doesn't get flat on the bottom.  I plan on milk feeding this pumpkin.  You put a small slit in the vine just before the pumpkin.  Not too big just big and deep enough to insert a string in the vine.  The other end of the string is in a covered dish of milk. You have to change the milk so it doesn't sour. Tal has put his order in for this pumpkin.  His dad had better bring some big men to pick up this pumpkin when he takes it home.  I grew one for Jamon that was 106 pounds and I did not milk feed that one.
