This is our number one pumpkin. It has been doing a solid 30 pounds per day plus for about 10 days or so now and is measuring out at about 540. In two day it should be as big as our second biggest pumpkin was last year - at the end of season lol. It is starting to look like a giant tomato hahahaha. I think we will paint it red for contest if it is still shapped like this in mid october. with 40 plus days of really solid grow time left we have no idea of what to expect but are figuring at least one of ours should hit over 1000 pounds this year - however with the size they are right now and amount of grow time we have left we are hoping for 1400 pounds plus this year. We still have sort of decent grow time after Sept first all the way until contest in mid October. Steve
