The 333 at 10DAP. I managed to nick it with a fingernail so that's some sulphur powder you can see on top. Underneath is cat litter, the non-clumping expanded clay type. Many of us cactus growers use it in cactus compost, it acts as drainage and it absorbs water. We use it instead sand because it's lighter, doesn't clump, it's non abrasive, pH neutral and drains more freely. I think it will work well under the pumpkin for the same reasons.
Recent weather has been cloudy with light showers and the forecast looks the same.
