It's that time of year. Time to plant the pumpkins.
Here's what our field looks like in June.
It will be a much different picture in October.
We used to plant our pumpkins by hand, but now we
use an antique lister and a little Ford tractor.
Grant fills his hands with seeds and Brett sets off towards the
flag at the end of the row that helps guide him.
Water breaks are a must on a hot Kansas day.
And off they go!
Four acres of pumpkin seeds have been planted and
the rest will go in the ground next week. It will be
time to hoe before we're ready. And by "we" I
mean Grant, Brett and Paige.
That's a little more than our 2 measly plants in our garden! Interesting to see. :) Look forward to seeing later pictures.
ReplyDeleteThat means there is still time to plant mine next week?? I figured it was too late for the year. .HMMMM. I found my leftover seeds from last year. Maybe!
