Well, my Captain Jack pumpkin yellowed and died off. So I guess it didn’t get pollinated after all. All of the vines are looking really healthy, so it’s a matter of time. I have to keep reminding myself that I didn’t get my first Connecticut Field pumpkin last year until September.
I plucked all of the our remaining watermelons and pulled the vines. We’ve had enough. Cut one of the last ones open this weekend and it was a beauty.
I gave a few to some of the neighbors and we kept the last 2 for ourselves.

How many are you getting per vine? Do you cull any small ones so a few will get big or just let them go? I have a Leelanau Sweetglo with 4 or 5 lil melons on it, was wondering if I need to pull some.

It looks perfect.
I planted Kajara, Tigger, and Model melons. The Tiggers look like they're doing best in the heat. T

I'm optimistic about my squash. I planted Acorn Squash in the spring and none of the fruit ever set. They all got fuzzy and fell off. I sprayed copper fungicide on my current squash, hopefully it works. I planted Scallop, Butternut, Desi, Acorn, and Guicoy.
