1770.5 Lieber (1495 Stelts x self) goes in on left. 1774.5 Carter (1756 H/J x self) on right.
This will be the second year I have grown the 1774.5 Carter. It was a good plant and fast grower last year and the pumpkin had the right shape and thickness although it was white. Hopefully some color this year.
I watered these in with some H2O2 hopefully this will make the transplant shock less. This ground was totally unprepped and I think the oxygen in the soil gets depleted after tilling because of the decomposition of organics... whereas ideal soil has oxygen. Just a hunch! (A little H2O2 is cheap and it won’t hurt... So will it help? I don’t know!). Two more plants 2095 Stelts and the 186 Radach I pulled out earlier... and then the four pots of Gerry plants. Those should go in quick... less roots in those patches hopefully.
