Garden questions
How can i keep raccoons away from porch they is nothing there to eat they come on the porch and do their business there any suggestions
A: put a couple a plates of standard moth balls

2. It's September 1 and I just severed a major vine feeding the only two pumpkins I have. I had lots of dead and dying leaves (growing a plant in a large container on my deck). Just fertilized the other day, and seems to be doing better. But now I'm scared my little pumpkins might dye. I just stuck the end of the vine back into the soil. Hoping it develops roots so the fruit will continue to grow. I have several blossoms on other vines, but wonder if they even turn into baby pumpkins, will they mature before the frost? I'm guessing 60 days or so isn't enough. so I need to see what I can do for the ones I got.
A:Sadly your small pumpkins will most likely not grow and because it was a major vine you may lose the plant. There are if on the ground feeder roots the attach to the ground to help the plant
3. Wild grapes
4. How do I know when my Sweet corn is ready to harvest.

5.I recently canned salsa. The recipe was an approved water bath recipe which I pressure canned instead of water bathing for the time mentioned in the recipe. I canned in pint jars. I was really given a hard time by an acquaintance telling me it was not safe. Is this true. I canned in pint jars, 10psi, 25 minutes.
A: This is fine. You shouldve processed them a few minutes less, but they are ok .
