🎃 PK Pumpkin Patch Project: Winging It Edition! 🎃
I have some BIG ideas for the fall festival in town… and those ideas require LOTS and LOTS of pumpkins! Unfortunately, pumpkins aren’t cheap, so we decided to see if we could grow our own.
Dad helped me move the old hay from where he feeds the cows, we hoed a few rows, tossed out some pumpkin seeds, and called it good. 🤣
Now, I’m sure there are people out there with fancy pumpkin-growing methods, soil tests, fertilizer schedules, and spreadsheets. We, however, are operating under a highly advanced farming technique known as “winging it.”
After all the rain we’ve had, I was a little worried everything would get waterlogged and rot, but guess what? They’re sprouting! 🌱🎃
It’s only been a week, but we’re officially making progress. Whether this turns into a beautiful pumpkin patch or a valuable lesson in what not to do, you’re all coming along for the ride!
Check back for updates on our crazy pumpkin-growing adventure. Wish us luck… I have a feeling we’re going to need it! 🤣🎃
