The pumpkin patch has grown at a tremendous rate. There's no point in weeding much anymore because the big beautiful leaves block them from getting a lot of sun.... plus the viney-grabby things (I know they're called tendrils, but viney-grabby things sounded cooler) are using the weeds to wrap around. I like to imagine the pumpkin plants are strangling the weeds so they can't steal the water and nutrients they need.
We're up to 6 pumpkins that I could find. The leaves are so large and cover so much area that it was challenging to discover all of them. One, although slightly lopsided, is already turning orange.
