This is the 1566 Rodonis.

It ended the season for me a couple days ago. This was my last fruit (after it had been cut and moved out to the edge of the garden).

Then I realized that I had not taken a recent pic of it and reassembled it for the shot....lol...

It had really picked up steam and was pushing towards 500lbs. It would have turned out much better than i thought a couple weeks ago. It was turning into such a pretty pumpkin - and large, but the blossom end split. I am hoping to grow both the 1161 and the 1566 again.
Thanks for looking at my Diary this year. Hope to see you all around. Rod
