This year I have decided to stray from the pack as far as how I will be managing my pumpkin plants. Typically a grower will prune the plant as it grows to make it nice and organized. However, this year I have decided not to prune my plants due to the fact that I don't have enough time to do it with the family farm and all. I however have decided to only prune the plants when they hit the plant borders that are predetermined. This will allow the plants to recover from a hail storm more quickly due to having many growing points left on the plant. Also with this extra time I will be able to manage the plants more as far as insecticides, fungicides and fertilizer go.
