First pumpkin patch, advice?
I have a 5 acre lot at my new house. This lot has an electric fence and previously had horses during the summer. My husband says we can till up part of it and make a pumpkin patch for this year. How well will it do if I don't ammend it the first year? We are putting a lot of money into raised beds in a different garden so I can't spare a lot of cash. Will it do ok? Any advice for first patch?
We are a south facing hill top. Haven't investigated the soil yet over there, but most of this town in Virginia is clay. 😬
I'm just looking for pumpkins for my daughter for Halloween. I already have plenty of seed.
