Hi all. We have 6 giant pumpkin plants that we planted from seed about 8 weeks ago. We've been hardening them off by putting them outside on the deck during the day, and taking them in at night.

The problem is, they don't seem to like light very much! If I put them out in the full sun, they wilt. So I move them into filtered light or shade. Last frost date is this weekend, and I'd like to plant them out in the garden! What's up?

Thank you for your input.
