Here lies my "perfect on paper" pollination from the 18th. I pollinated another 48 hours ago and it's giving me similar vibes with a rubbery blossom end. Now I have to figure out why none of my plants will take a pollination despite basically perfect weather for most of June. Nutrients? I think not. I have grown pumpkins with much worse soil than this and they're getting a well balanced diet. Disease/pests? Everything looks fine as of now beyond some mild sunburn and I've seen basically zero pests. We have a 100 degree heatwave coming so my prospects aren't looking great for this year but I'll keep fighting and see what happens.
