Safely light pumpkins

Vacation Help Needed

I am going on vacation for a couple of days. Is anyone out there willing to help tend the pumpkin patch while I am away? It is well maintained. There is only a few things you need to do:

1. Weed
2. Water, morning, noon and night.
3. Bury vines to promote secondary root growth.
4. Add fertilizers. Liquid and solids, regularly according to a strict schedule.
5. Prune vines and bury the ends.
6. Pollinate a few each morning--early.
7. Add fungicides
8. Apply insecticides.
9. Perform surgery on vine borers.
10. Construct sunshade cover.
11. Measure growth each day.

Are we having fun yet, hmmmmm!?!

Halloween decorations, skulls, lights, much more.
