Title: pumkink marrow flowers and all of the family
Post by: THE MASTER on July 30, 2008, 01:49:53

has any one found that if you leave the flowers on , both male and femail rot goes into the stem aka male flowers and also into the fruit aka femail

what ive been doing is just lighty pulling on the closed up flowers if they easily pop off the rot does not seem to go any further. now i dont know if im doing the correct thing but im lossing less  ???
