My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Borer inside my pumpkin

17 years ago

Sigh, picked two of my pumpkins yesterday. Didn't realize that one had a borer in the stem. Now it's gone down inside the pumpkin itself. Can I write this one off? Or is there hope.

Learning so much, this is my first year growing pumpkins.
