I Have never heard of this before. Thank you so much for the clear and precise explanation. Really, very good video. Wow, I hope I get my plant up and going because I want to try this out. I will check your home page and probably subscribe. I always check home pages ....Miss Jeri.

New to pumpkins, and never knew of this process or even that you could do this. I'm now ready for next year, but going to leave this year's crop as it is. Many thanks!

I have a lot of bees in my garden there doing a great job

This information has really helped me this year. The pumpkins are really growing and the plants are huge! Thank You so much for this video.

Enormously helpful. Thanks! Question: Can you fertilize a female flower from a male flower on the same plant?

1k subs...you should keep going with vid's, replies and see it fly!

[UraniumMan]

Interesting, I had no idea you could bury the vines to grow more roots. Thanks!

[oui-nonmaybe]

A perfectionist for sure! : ) Beautiful job. Thanks for the tips!

Very informative. Going to try this on tomato and cucumber plants.

Interesting video... You may be interested in my unorthodox method that is similar to this. Last year we bought some pumpkins from Trader Joe's. They say until March 2018 and started leaking. Just prior to this, I had just gotten motivated to remove a massive, solid root from an old Orange tree that reached full maturity and was easily 40 to 50 years old. The root was massive and left a hole big enough to literally make a pond out of... I thought, let's try an experiment. (My garden is in La Habra, California and it has been very hot this year) I tossed both rather large pumpkins into the hole and they smashed pretty good.

A few weeks later I started to notice the sprouts and just started watering. I have to say, every other time I have grown from a mound and they never looked this healthy without some sort of artificial fertilizer. All of the vines have grown out of the hole and have spread all across my backyard, over 20 feet in some cases. As it progressed I set up a few water points that created an alluvial fan going into the hole and started covering some vines. I compost daily, however I started throwing my compost directly into the center of the hole and let the alluvial fan slowly cover it. It's too soon to see if my pumpkins will be larger than the seed they came from, but so far I am seeing some very healthy fruit and flower. Oh and incidentally, the fan is covering up the vines with soil naturally.

Thank you for sharing this.

Its amazing that without doing any of that my pumpking keeps producing and I have 7 pound pumpkins ready to harvest. I didnt do any of the stuff you show.
WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO COMPLICATE THINGS FOR OTHERS?

[kristinpothast]

Would you recommend cutting off a male flower and taking it around to your open female flowers to ensure they're all getting properly pollinated?

[cubmaster]

Thanks for sharing this. I enjoyed your first two videos. I will have to try the mud patty method. Good luck this season!

[paynes]

Will the pumpkins not grow if you don't manually pollinate? I thought my friends the bees did that? tia

[arunchakkaravarthi]

Hi there new to your channel. Like the video. Short and to the point. Can you tell me what is eating my pumpkin and zucchini leaves and how to fix it? Thanks!
