Oh no our baby has gone

Bad news. The pumpkin that had set last week has been chomped by slugs. The little devils sneaked in under the cover of darkness and chewed off our first set pumpkin.
Good news however the second pumpkin has set a little baby now, but the task is to keep the predators away from this one. Unfortunately it is still so very cold these plants are not growing as fast as they should be. This July is not a great squash month.
