You can also grow/transplant herbs and other scented plants to combat pests, it’s almost as if my pumpkins were invisible last year with mint, basil, and even marigolds growing around them.

Thanks bro

@raywhatley5106 4 года назад

How do you get rid of ants who are stealing the pollen from the flowers?

@mikeulrich5172 5 лет назад

Your videos are fantastic, thank you. I'm in week 3 of my first time growing pumpkins and it's coming along nicely so far. I'm concerned about pests and have gotten Neem oil, Captain Jacks, and BT. Could you comment on how often you apply the neem oil/soap mixture in conjuction with Captain Jack's and BT?

@mrsseasea 7 лет назад

I also use neem.....I spray both sides of leaves.......but this summer around July I notices a lot of potato bugs......but I also had a number of lady bugs......I thought they would take care of the bug......so I used neem with a little bit of soap and water and it worked wonderfully! Thank you for your video. Wa st..

@HapayuGardening 7 лет назад

Thanks for sharing! The neem oil insecticidal soap mixture does wonders for my veggie garden.

@theristis9451 6 лет назад

Omg thank you that altenary blight came very very early on my pumpkin plant and I scared me because I only have one atm and idk know what to do

@kimmartinez3086 6 лет назад

I have 15 pie pumpkins growing right now and they each have plenty of space. There are lots of leaves and male flowers that are blossoming beautifully. However all the female flowers with the pumpkins underneath keep turning yellow and falling off. The flowers do not even have a chance to open up. I'm getting so discouraged about it. It would stink to have all my time and energy wasted if I do not have pumpkins at the end of the season. Plus, I found 4 small vine borers today. I hope I can find something encouraging soon. I've been checking them day and night and sprayed neem oil on them. I'll go out and by some stuff you mentioned soon.

I love the yellow cup idea!

@woodspirit98 3 года назад

Spray sour milk on your pumpkins to prevent powdery mildew.

@HapayuGardening 3 года назад

I did this once and my wife did not approve of the smell and told me to find another option. But yes, it's a great solution!

@laurels52 4 года назад

Thank you! Powdery mildew and cucumber beetles attacking my patch - will try your tips to save my pumpkins

@applesomething 4 года назад

Oh wow. Spinosad...Several years ago a pediatrician told me the only thing that could kill the lice on my kid’s head was spinosad. She got her info from the CDC but said the reason it is not widely used is because it is super expensive. I paid about $200 or so for a few doses. I wonder how the foliar concoction compares in ppm and price.

@thehomeplatespecial597 5 лет назад

does the yellow solo cut sticky trap catch ladybugs and butterflies too?

@livenotonevil8279 5 лет назад

How do you mow around the pumpkin vines?

@mammacass5311 4 года назад

Do you find with your preventative measures that you are harming very many beneficial insects? I’m new at this and trying to determine the best approach thank you

@lorirockriver5937 4 года назад

Thank you so much for this! I have watched countless videos, some mention the Powdery mildew and the other's, but not one tell you what to do about! 😬🤦‍♀️ Would you please put the Names of the products, what it's used for in the Description ☝🏼 🙏please and thank you. Maybe you could become an "Affiliate" for the products and get compensated for it, by posting the link☝🏼for us to go to😊 Thank you for taking the time to help us Beginnings out! Happy Gardening to All! 🎃

@angeleyes5780 6 лет назад

Wow i think mine has grubs the main growing point theres holes on my vines and the older leaves are brown dying😢

@annef2620 6 лет назад

Found this video incredibly useful. Thanks. Have one reservation, though. On a list of pesticides, I found Spinosad (Captain Jack Deadbug) listed as very toxic to bees?

@antt02 5 лет назад

I've read that too. I use a different brand of spinosad to control leaf miners on my citrus trees; I just make sure to not use it while the trees are flowering.

@jacobfurnish7450 5 лет назад

Do they harm soil microbial organisms.

@ximenaayala1817 Год назад

Did you day neem oil?

@mromfggggggg 4 года назад

Please help something is destroying my pumpkin plant it's so sad !! It ate the entire plant in a matter of hours! I'm guessing Is it lizards/iguanas/green anol? I'm so upset it hasto to be something big it eats the whole thing in one bite! .( The plant gets about 4 leaves before it's attacked) don't have mold , or bugs idk what it is !? It hasto be an animal ! how to do prevent racoons,lizards from eating them?

@NekoFreya 2 года назад

If you just have two, container plants and little money, which would you recommend best for trying first for the mildew? The neem oil or copper?

@speaklifegardenhomesteadpe8783 2 года назад

I used a little hydrogen peroxide in water in my sprayer for mildew.

@xweiliable 4 года назад

I have a problem where my pumpkin flower would be pollinated and then little pumpkin start to form, but then it will turn yellow and start to rot. have you had this problem ? any suggestions would be greatly appreciate it

@raywhatley5106 4 года назад

It appears that the female flower was not pollinated from the male. In my yard ants steal pollen. You can learn how to pollinate female flowers with a small paint brush or use the male stamin by plucking a male, pull out the yellow side flowers, then use the stain itself. There are videos that show you how.

@breahwoolson3857 4 года назад

This is very helpful! What should I do about squash bugs? Saw the eggs and scraped off but just saw 2 bugs. Anything to spray with?

@MrandMrsBurns 11 месяцев назад

What is deflating my pumpkins? They’ll get like up to ~8” long then we go out the next time and look and they’re flat. We’ve lost 5 so far this year.

@HapayuGardening 10 месяцев назад

I'm sorry for the late response. Not sure if you've been able to figure anything out yet. Few questions and thoughts... 1) What kind of pumpkins are you growing? 2) How do your vines and leaves look? 3) How often are you watering? 4) Where do you live and how has the weather been? In short, most common causes are stress (heat, sun, cold, etc), diseases, and/or insects. Lastly, it could also be that your pumpkins weren't properly pollinated.

I have the cucumber Beatles they damage my pumpkin patch
