First year trying this from a bare lot. I will be reaching out to the pros after this year's results. It's so neat that there is a whole community for this!
Awesome!! I look forward to watching your journey!!! When I got involved in this seven years ago, It was interesting that there was a community… but I’ll tell you right now. It’s perhaps of the best communities you could ever get involved with.
Thanks for watching!! Yea I’m excited to see what Travis can do and I have myself busy this year with giants….. Also yours are looking absolutely awesome so keep it up and Grow’em Big!!
Someone discovered all the transitions in their video editor! Lol This was super interesting! And I have a small patch and I do a daily mix in 5 gallon buckets! Lol I’ll probably reach out to get some help for sure! Thank you Chris for the video!
When it comes to fertilizing, I see a lot of people do foliage feeding. How much and which types of fertilizers work best for foliar feeding versus putting in the water when watering the roots?
When it comes to foliar feeding you need to use water soluble fertilizers and you would feed based on needs which you would determine based on your soil test and your plant health, along with the stage of plant/pumpkin growth.
Amazing watch and thanks for sharing! Do you keep your biologicals in the shed and is the shed cooled or does it even matter? I’ve always kept my biologicals in a 65 to 70 degree closet in the house and wondering if I’m wasting my time? Thanks Travis
Thanks for watching the video I appreciate it!!! So Travis replied “ There is no climate control in my shed but I keep the doors open so it doesn’t get too hot. As far as winter goes I bring them indoors so they do not freeze” Travis went on to say “ that Douglas Plant health has tested product from rail cars that had frozen and the number of viable microbes was still higher then the amount on the label even after they had been frozen”
Thanks yea some of these nutrients can be a bit expensive but they are pretty potent so it will last a while generally two or more years… there are companies that sell similar nutrients in much smaller doses making it more affordable, like the Raw line from NPK industries.
@GardenofGiants I litteraly just saw the Raw line at my local garden store and was looking up earlier tonight. Harder to find these types of products in Canada looking to improve this year, learning a lot more about biologicals and microbials :)
great video! My pumpkins grow to the size of a volleyball, then rotts out. What fertilizer would you recommend to make my pumpkins continue to grow after pollination 0--0-25?
Are you protecting the bottom of your pumpkin with foam board and sand? If you are doing that then I would love to plant size and make sure you have your pumpkin at least 10 to 15 feet out from the crown. Finally some fertilizers to really help grow your pumpkin would be potassium, calcium, boron, and maybe a little sulfur along with your kelp and your humic.
If you follow the tips tricks and secrets that I put out on this channel I don’t see 500 being an issue in fact I think you could set your sights more towards 1000 pounds!! Best of luck this season!!
@@GardenofGiants Thank you, gonna try and grow some 100-500lb pumpkins this year. No competition from me, I have no interest in growing 2500lb record pumpkins lol.
I looked up the Essential Plus and it says not to be used on Food crops. Man, some of us don't have dedicated patches and would love to use these products but the label stopped me in my tracks.
I’m right there with Amy my sweet corn beans and peas are growing right next to my gourd and pumpkins. Are there certain nutrients you’re looking for I could try to make a suggestion?
Yes the interview will consist of how he grew a world record….. And remember he did this outside in Minnesota, no CO2, no fancy electronics, no drip tape, just a four dollar Walmart sprinkler. It’ll be interesting.
You are able to buy some product directly from Travis. Otherwise most of it is available on Amazon and some of it is available at local grow stores and plant nurseries.
@@GardenofGiants I can buy the raw form for like $15 for 5 pounds a 50 pound bag is like $120 where I live. I get screwed on all garden products it seems.
@@GardenofGiants I have been attempting to amend a vineyard that is planted in really brutal sandy soil and I pretty much am deficient in every micronutrient and have a organic matter of 1.80% and a CEC of like 6. So its a been a really uphill battle. I have been putting down a bunch of granular Humics to amend the soil
@@GardenofGiants I’m working on the details it’s 500 miles my van is in the shop. It was blowing oil like a Kansas tornado so hopefully I can put together something in the next week or two to make a road trip.

Chris, I can't seem to find your video on butternut squash. Did you make one during your grow season?
Thanks 🙏 I’m going to actually do one on my butternut I have growing this year which is off the current world record seed so it should be good.
Hi to both of you from down the street in White Bear Township
Thank you both for your advice
Hey we’re neighbors!!! Thanks for watching and keep following and ask as many questions as you can!!
admirable indeed!
Thanks 😊

Hi Chris, are we going to get part 2 of Travis sharing his knowledge?
Soon!!👍
Thanks Guys!!! 😮
Thanks for watching 💪🎃

Thanks for the reply.
Very great info. I just wish I could afford to buy all that stuff. There's thousands of dollars of product in there
Thanks yea some of these nutrients can be a bit expensive but they are pretty potent so it will last a while generally two or more years… there are companies that sell similar nutrients in much smaller doses making it more affordable, like the Raw line from NPK industries.
When you start growing over 2000 pounds, there’s a bit of money to be spent.;)

Thank you to you both for the info. I downloaded the video. Thanks aain. My goal is only 200 to 500

What fence material is around his pumpkin plant?
Silt fence
@@GardenofGiants Thank you, gonna try and grow some 100-500lb pumpkins this year. No competition from me, I have no interest in growing 2500lb record pumpkins lol.
When is part 2 ready ?😊
Soon!! You’ll be the first to know!
Soon ? ❤@@GardenofGiants

Part 2 now that he’s the WR holder!;)
What worked and what didn’t.
He clearly has zero disease yet?
Yes the interview will consist of how he grew a world record….. And remember he did this outside in Minnesota, no CO2, no fancy electronics, no drip tape, just a four dollar Walmart sprinkler. It’ll be interesting.
Where in the world are we buying the stuff?
You are able to buy some product directly from Travis. Otherwise most of it is available on Amazon and some of it is available at local grow stores and plant nurseries.
Amazing video, i can't remember if i asked you but will you be doing giant carrots?
Yes I will be doing some videos on giant carrots and I’m growing them this year as well.
@@GardenofGiants wonderful. Im growing some this year also.
Does he have website for products ?
Unfortunately not but stay tune as we’re going to go through every product he used on another interview with him
What brand meter was that?
Apera instruments try promo code travis
when you say snake head vines, is that caused by to much nitrogen?
Yes the excess nitrogen will lift the vine, kinda like a cobra snake head
Humic is so expensive for me, was trying to put it down to aid organic matter in my lifeless sandy soil
You can buy the raw form in 40 pound bags, for about $18 a bag, goes into my garden every year.
@@GardenofGiants I can buy the raw form for like $15 for 5 pounds a 50 pound bag is like $120 where I live. I get screwed on all garden products it seems.
@@GardenofGiants I have been attempting to amend a vineyard that is planted in really brutal sandy soil and I pretty much am deficient in every micronutrient and have a organic matter of 1.80% and a CEC of like 6.

Great video !!
Thanks 😊
