🥶 FROST ANXIETY! 🥶
Last year, our first frost came on October 10th. This year, I’m really hoping we can make it to October 15th! 🤞
Every extra day these vines stay alive means better quality gourds, and we grow some excellent gourds! 🎃
At this point in the season, it becomes less about pests and disease and more about the F word… FROST. 😂❄️
Just keep growing, vines. Just keep growing.

Not looking forward to the “F” word. Kerosene prices are at $6.99 a gallon. Filling up & starting the winterization process. Started bringing in plants from my deck today because of the 42 degree mornings 🥶 Harvest so far looks very healthy & promising for you Aaron🥰 Hope this finds you & yours well 💕🐾🐾💕

How do you have soo many gourds growing ? Our vines had tons of blooms and small fruit but they die after getting a certain size ?

Do you leaves your gourds out all winter? Hanging or just on the ground curing? 1st time growing
