Default Pumpkins struggling
In article ,
says...
Dont pumpkins like nitrogen? Arnt grass clippings high in nitrogen?

Might be a stupid question as I havent grown pumkins before but
wouldnt putting grass clippings around the plants help?

Grass cuttings are more likely to remove nitrogen from the soil. pumpkins would
prefer well rotted compost.
