    Have you ever grown pumpkins? If so, were they a success and what would you do differently if you were to grow them again?

      Threw out a hundred or so seeds just to see what happened.
      At least 90% successfully sprouted.

    Awesome video sir! My son is 9 and buried an entire pumpkin last fall, as his own little experiment. It is actually thriving and he was researching how to make it the best possible!
    Your video was so educational
    to him and helpful!
    Thank you!

    I love that this guy shows the good the bad and the ugly
    You can normally type in how to grow a pumpkin patch
    And people normally say
    Plant a seed
    Get good soil
    And walla a nice pumpkin patch...wrong !!!!
    It's a lot more than that and this guy shows it

    The pic you had of squash vine borer was actually a pic of a squash bug which pierces fruit and leaves scars. Squash vine borer is a colorful black and orange moth that looks kind of wasp like.

    I know organically grown is favored by many. But the grass/weeds help harbor insects. Either spray or pull to help you here.
    Also add some trap plants such as Hubbard squash to attract insects away from your main patch. Keep those sprayed as well

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  4 месяца назад +1

      Good tips Edward, thanks. I have heard of trap crops.

    The leaves allow the solution to rundown their stems toward the roots. There aren't specialized absorptive apparatus by plants leaves. I loclve this video. Quick. I could've followed. Thanks.

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  Год назад

      Surprisingly leaves do actually absorb nutrients, although there is some debate about how this exactly occurs. Check out this article: ipm.missouri.edu/MPG/2019/4/foliarFeeding/

    hi i want to grow some calabaza pumpkin but the space i have is limited is it possible to grow the vine and cut it when it passes over 12ft before it starts flowering and remove the secondary vine and grow it with just the main vine, I'm from zone 13 I'm not worrying about the season just space issues

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  2 месяца назад

      Hi Shane. You can definitely cut the plant back in a pinch. Typically I don’t recommend this though because more leaves will be beneficial to growth. Give it a shot!

    The pollination process with male & female always confuses me

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  2 года назад +1

      Male flowers have long stems behind them, whereas the female flowers have an unfertilized fruit behind them. When pollen is transferred from the male flower to female flower successfully, the fruit will grow and develop. Is there something in particular you don't understand?

  • @siemprefeliz1
    @siemprefeliz1 Год назад +1

    Can I ask what brand of 3-18-18 fertilizer you purchased for your pumpkins?

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt

      I don’t remember the brand but it was just a bulk generic bag from TSC (now Peaveymart).

      Pie pumpkins aren't the best for Jack-O-Lanterns... they are too small. Just check the description and see if it mentions "large" or "jack-o-lantern". Not sure which one you are referring to...?

    is it possible to have a male pumpkin plant? I have a ton of flowers on my Jarrahdale pumpkin vine but no fruit. I would love any suggestions or advice on what to do as i am running out of time to get some fruit to grow, my community garden closes oct 15. Thanks

    • @lucasgrowsbestyt
      @lucasgrowsbestyt  Год назад

      It's possible, I don't know. Normally pumpkins plants have both male and female flowers, with a higher ratio of males to females.

  • @trinade3732
    @trinade3732 3 года назад +1

    Sorry to hear of your troubles again.(i watched you plant) Need better soil. Healther, non-disease plants survive better! Sorry to hear you went non organic pesticide. There are plenty of organics that work. How far down wind is the rest of your garden, tomatoes and peppers? You can't wait untill the pests are so out of control. Especially since you had knowledge of the Beatles in the area.Before you start such an adventure, especially if it is a dream, you need to plan. Plan not what and where only, but what ifs, as well. Plenty of research and video out there.Look, ask before you start. I row cover till flowers, watch daily, pick and spray.
