Went to work today after having the weekend off. Found that a woodchuck had made it under the fence. After searching around I found a newly dug hole (only 4" deep). Not far away was mr woodchuck. After chasing him around the pumpkin plant he met Mr Shovel....game over

1421 Stelts split. Got 2.35" of rain and I guess it was too much. I'll clear out that pumpkin this weekend.

Here's another picture of the 1610 Lieber Estimated at 763 lbs. I pollinated it with 1421 Stelts that split on me. A few postings back you can see pics. It was a very dark orange so that trait should be dominate in the off spring. Will be growing seeds from this cross
