If we just put backup plants in the ground could we still a competitive size field pumpkin for October weighoff ?


Thanks

Weather permitting...you have more than enough time.

Yep the average growth span for a field pumpkin is only 30-45 days. My issue with Field Pumpkins is Powdery Mildew late in the season

I think yes-later pollinations grow like crazy

absolutely. i put one in about this time two years ago, maybe even later and it grew great and seemed to resist PM better. mine will be going in late this year as well--patch too wet.
