That's a pumpkin plant. There are now six plants in the ground. This is a "new" planting area for me - what used to be the burn pile. I mulched the area with a thick layer of leaves last fall. We shall see how they grow. Note burned branches around the plant. It's, in theory, to prevent likely damage from my idiot dog running through there. There are also potato plants growing out there.
Yes, it is exciting.
And, to note, the farmers planted the field today. What will it be? Soybeans? Corn? I'm rooting for corn!
