Are you fellow pigg gardeners getting enough bees? If not, remember to hand pollinate those pumpkins and melons. The melon flowers are so small and if there are plenty of other flowers around the bees might skip them. It is probably best to hand pollinate any hoped for giant pumpkins.
I didn’t see many bees and was worried. Recently the numbers gradually started to increase. These bees could be both wild living colonies and from neighbors who keep hives. Last year there were so many hungry bees that they were crawling all over the corn tassles.
