“HOW TO GROW GIANT PUMPKINS 2012”
We show up close and “in Live Action” how to lay out planting beds, prepare and fertilize the soil install a soil heating cable and starting your seeds, as well as setting plants out in a prepared temporary greenhouse. It is important to trim the plant so maximum growth is diverted into the pumpkin and not wasted on excess vines and foliage. We demonstrate techniques to accomplish this important task and explain how to use Mycorrhizal Fungi to increase root growth and plant performance. Also, a focus of attention is using the proper watering procedures, our insect control program, our disease control program, and you even learn to hand pollinate the blossoms to get an early start on growing your giant pumpkins! Other topics on the DVD’s include how to keep the central stump clean and healthy, foliar feeding, water and cooling, dealing with a broken main vine, and many more techniques to maximize the size of your giant pumpkin. The DVD is over 1-hour and 40-minutes of helpful information!! Special lighting, music, titles and special effects create an awesome audio-visual experience!
