  • It's pumpkin harvest time! While I didn't get quite as many as last year, I will still have a great amount of pumpkins to take to the market with my cut flowers this next week! In this video I share all the varieties that I grew this season!

    I always love the pumpkin harvest video! I want to grow them so badly but they are so big. I wish there were some bush varieties, something a little less viney...I would grow sooooo many different colors! Thank you and I hope the market is the best one yet for you. Enjoy! 😊❤

    You inspired me to grow pumpkins with your video last year! I'm getting ready to harvest in the next few days and things are looking great! So excited to see the response from my customers!

    Your pumpkins are so beautiful. Last year after watching your pumpkin harvest, I was inspired to try growing some but conservtively only planted One variety and never got any femaile flowers. Hoping to have better luck next year.

    It's so fun to see all your pumpkins. I've grown a few but want to try a few others next year

    Ahh been waiting for this pumpkin haul!! LOVE them and your little girl is adorable!! Boy I'm still a little behind in videos...looking ahead to the market. I kn ow you will do great. I'm finished with my market. Hmmm I think if you really like that one pumpkin... you better save the seeds. A roll of the dice though.. maybe it crossed with something else and will be a different pumpkin next yr.?! They will all sell!

    Great varieties! I like the minis growing up the trellis. They look like lanterns. So cute. 😊

    Nice haul! I'd save the seeds from that lone striped pumpkin - maybe you've got something unique. By the way, I could hear everything all the way through. On your corrected audio version of your last video, I still couldn't hear sound after 3:12. I listen through the speakers on my laptop and have never had issues in the past. Don't worry about it, you have enough to do this week! Good luck on the market!

    Your pumpkins look so great! I especially love the warts ones. Are they just decorative or are they good to eat?

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 11 měsíci

      I won’t eat any but some varieties could be eaten. Maybe the black Futsu? I know jarradale is a good one to eat

  • @rachaelbrown1726
    @rachaelbrown1726 Před 11 měsíci +1

    Love all the different varities. I would definitely save those seeds. I'm going to try to grow some of those midnight next year, so unique.

      Check out the link in my video description for seed

    I know it's a year by year thing, but isn't it so frustrating when things don't go like they did the year before? My first year with dahlias was amazing and after year 3, I'm tearing most of them out and sticking with seed dahlias. I can't seem to keep the bugs off and I can't seem to figure out the staking. (Although I do need to stake the seed dahlias, it doesn't feel as daunting and it may be "1st year syndrome," but they didn't suffer from bugs.)
    I hope your market next week goes great!!

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 11 měsíci

      Yes. Super frustrating. But next year is another year and will probably be totally different! Haha.

    It might be worth looking at the allelopathic properties of sunflowers as the reason for the pumpkin patch being a poor production, rather than shading out.

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 10 měsíci

      My pumpkin seed distributor informed me of the same thing last month. I had no idea!

  • @petefredrick3784
    @petefredrick3784 Před 11 měsíci

    I tried to grow pumpkins this year and the squash bugs ate them all. Do you spray for bugs? I'll try again next year, they are just so fun.

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 11 měsíci +1

      I have never had a problem with squash bugs. I know some people will hand pick them off and also use duct tape to get the eggs off the leaves

  • @chrisrond1022
    @chrisrond1022 Před 11 měsíci

    Where did you get your black trellis from and would you recommend it ?

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 11 měsíci

      Highly recommend. Titan squash tunnel from gardeners supply

  • @patriciakeys4873
    @patriciakeys4873 Před 11 měsíci

    How do keep all the squash bugs off?

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 11 měsíci

      I don’t have a problem with them. Yet anyway!

  • @beatricepalacios5435
    @beatricepalacios5435 Před 11 měsíci

    Are these pumpkins just for decoration or can you eat them?

    • @SunshineFlora
      @SunshineFlora  Před 11 měsíci

      These are for decoration. I sell all of them at a big market that this is coming weekend. Stay tuned for videos!
