I know its late in the season but i just set two AG's. I live Central Cal. Do you folks think these two girls will finish? With some good weather and a lot of luck they just might. Weather for Fall in my region is for warm and hot with Off shore winds and heat through October...Thoughts? 120 days?

AHHHH... How I miss San Luis Obispo & Pisma Beach...great getaway from Vandenberg AFB on the weekends...the Maddona INN but we won't discuss those weekends here,lol. My boy liked the Salt Water Taffy and I watched the sea lions,wink,wink!! I grew late season pepo pumpkins & Squash at just north of Lompoc Cali and a up at Santa Maria with no problems other than slow growin due to marine layer and cool nights (Keep em covered), where your at you should be fine. I use to plant right in the Ice Plant to use it as a weed barrier,lol. Man I miss the college Wednesday nights on the square. Good luck keep us posted how you do with them.

I was at VAFB also from 1990-1998. Get times loved the area but lived on base and never had a garden. Always had big strawberries and lots of artichokes.

If by set you mean pollinated, then yes I would say you'll have decent pumpkins for halloween with warm weather.
