Growing Pumpkins May 19, 2013

This is my third attempt to grow pumpkins.  This time I started in early spring.  The other two times I planted the seeds in the fall thinking I'd get some fall pumpkins.  That didn't work out, not sure why they didn't prosper.  They always start out looking exceedingly healthy - huge gorgeous leaves, lots of flowers... But I have quite a few baby pumpkins now, so maybe I'll be carving a pumpkin in October!
