LanTerra - 191 Kapelari Field Pumpkin Update: The fruits name is Tynee is a sib x self.
Tynee Now Day 23 at 64 + 37 + 42 = 143.
Note: There is long ways to grow yet. She needs to stay green. This Kappy plant and fruit is still young and started off very slowly on the main vine. Then when the warmth returned last week she kicked into gear recently.
Tynee loves water that is treated to 5.5 pH. Irrigation water at home has Ca Bicarbonate tie up issues. This mandates deep cleansing drenches with pH adjusted water.
This fruit appears to be the ONE. It is indeed special. Gaining 5 to 6" OTT a day. Several fruit growing and are now set on its plant. Kappy is so happy it may be a double producer like some of the recent past big Field Pumpkin plants.
Have a few young ones on the primary plant also. All crosses are selfed or sibbed.
Tynee at 10' growing on the main vine of the backup plant. Go figure why? Its growing in a shallow 18" deep 4 foot around pit that was bowled out with compost & good soil. The vines trail off on the grass with only 100 sq ft actually buried. Short of space and material this plant got the daily drenching to make up for its meager home. The plant occupies approx 400 sq ft. but grows vertically in a section with six vertical vine x 7 foot tall. Literally moron solar panels.
