               After pumpkin pollination, how long do you lay off the fertilizer applications to improve the odds that the pollination is a success?

               Like big city, only nitrogen is let up on a little during pollination but everything else still gets fed twice a day with each watering at 2% to 3% solution.
  I have very well drained soil and I'm feeding very lite.

               I do not alter my fertilizer program. The plant is still growing very quickly when the fruit is young. I would rather give too much than to limit the potential. Granted that is the way I do it, may not work for everyone.
