This year we started out growing Giant Pumpkins on new soil.The soil was poor and sandy so we needed to
improve it a lot.One of the things we
used, and with much success, was the Charcoal Green® [Biochar Plus]. We feel that using this product was part of our success in transforming
the soil into the healthy and fertile patch of land we needed. Resulting in 4
big fruit, a 426 lbs pumpkin, a 546 lbs pumpkin, and to top it off our South Carolina state record fruit of 1,164 lbs.
Next to that we grew a 155 lbs water melon.
We grew these fruits pretty early and tried to save the melon for the
fair. Unfortunately it started rotting. We tried it though and it was very
sweet. They are good eating melons.
