Up until early May, it looked like I would not have a garden plot so I did not go out and buy many supplies. A few days ago I found the plant blown over on its side. Some minor twisting. I removed the stem that was pushing the main vine up. Today I added four small garden stakes roughly following what I have seen in other diaries, spoon fed, and watered. The soil was way too dry this morning as I was not able to make it down yesterday. While the plot is only 3.5 miles each way, trips have to be planned around city traffic that has quickly built back up over the last month or so. I know this is not ideal, but it was this option or not growing a pumpkin this year. For me it is about learning and enjoying the process.
