Time to share a picture of our biggest pumpkin. =) Why is it already turning orange?! =[ It seems way too early for that and why isn't it growing more? We have about six others that are really starting to swell much faster than our largest. Are we not watering enough? Not enough fertilizer? Wrong fertilizer? What should we do different?!
Oh and I have an update on the rat situation. Yesterday evening I finally caught one of them!! I used an old school Victor rat trap baited with some crunchy peanut butter. I guess it couldn't resist it? Tonight, I have two traps set. I'm hopeful I'll get another. >:[
Also, an update on the electric fence. It is slowing them down, but it seems like they just run right through it. I really can't figure it out, but they are still managing to get inside the patch. Fun fact: I actually accidentally zapped myself earlier today on the fence. I can tell you it wasn't pleasant, so these rats must be pretty tough.
