Went to my first Specialty Crop Conference yesterday and they had a whole day of seminars on pumpkin growing. They presented the lastest insect, disease,and weed control,and soil fertility information and much more. Learned of some new or newly labeled fungicides and herbicides as well as recommended insecticides. ( Most require a restricted use license which I have) Gave out a detailed schedule of fungicide application suggestions which was great. If your state has a conference like this I highly recommend you go. A lot of information on commercial pumpkin growing is useful for big fields and giants.
