This is my second attempt at growing pumpkins. Last year all I got were beautiful flowers. The bees loved me. This year my luck is a little better with FIVE gourds on the vines. The pictured one is the largest. Was afraid something bad might happen to it, so I decided to get it up off the ground. This is the latest device. We'll see what happens if the pumpkin gets bigger around than the top of the net-covered tomato cage on which it is sitting.
