Justin Credible Posted October 3, 2013 Mines not doing to much at all, been copping a bit of wind. I'm going to rip up my extra pumpkin seedlings in front of Jimmy (my pumpkin) to scare him into growing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bogfrog Posted October 6, 2013 Mine are in the ground now, still in the cloche. Beginning to grow nicely. A scoundrel of the mollusc variety launched a midnight raid and munched many of the leaves off the smaller of my two plants, So its war. I'm beginning with beer traps, however if those slugs and snails think they are gonna get an easy fight, they're dreaming. I will get out the salt if I have to.

Stillman Posted October 8, 2013 Big Vine but no space to grow it. lol The things probably already cost me 60 dollars in fertiliser and water but watching how fast it grows is awesome. Thirsty bugger too, will take 10 litres of juice a day to keep it upright already. Gonna cost me a fortune. lol 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stillman Posted October 10, 2013 This one came from growit seeds off ebay. Was one of 20 seeds all were normal size except this seed which was the size of my thumb lol. My daughter spotted it and claimed it as hers was the only "big" seed I planted that germinated. I hope it sets something just for seeds next year. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
