27 Summary: Leaf Mulch on Pumpkin Weeds in mulch plots without herbicide was minimal and similar to bare soil plots with herbicide N immobilization was temporary Need early sidedress N N rate had little influence on crop yield Orange fruit size increased 30 to 50% with mulch Total yield by weight on bare vs mulch plots was not different in 2005 but greater with mulch in 2006 Clean fruit near 100% for mulch vs about 25% for bare soil Mulch creates attractive U-pick operation Mulch controls soil erosion and helps build organic matter
