            | stellern | Cheyenne, Wyoming | After pumpkin pollination, how long do you lay off the fertilizer applications to improve the odds that the pollination is a success? | 6/29/2017 11:21:59 AM |

            | So.Cal.Grower | Torrance, Ca. | Like big city, only nitrogen is let up on a little during pollination but everything else still gets fed twice a day with each watering at 2% to 3% solution.
 I have very well drained soil and I'm feeding very lite.

            | SmallTownUSA | Alex, IN | I do not alter my fertilizer program. The plant is still growing very quickly when the fruit is young. I would rather give too much than to limit the potential. Granted that is the way I do it, may not work for everyone.  | 6/30/2017 10:36:33 AM |
