Question
jap pumkins
I recently had a crop of pumkins, now they seem to want to prouce again as I have 4 small ones on now..is it too late?
Answer
Unless you need the space for your next crop you might as well let the pumpkins grow and see what develops, they are probably just the product of some late sets of flowers that were pollinated. Plants always know better than us. ; ) I assume it is late summer or fall where you are located, south of the equator?
