The heat is on in Northeastern Pa. and the pumpkins are loving it. Albeit a bit late but still it is good to finally see some bigger daily gains. The 834 continues its nice shape with some developing ribbing and maintaining a pale color. It seems that both of my plants got their color genetics from their fathers. The 834 was grown on the 998 Pukos and was a beautiful deep orange while its father the 1423 Wallace was lighter. The numbers are not great for the July 13th pollination and the plant size is small so I am thinking this may be weighed in Cooperstown and then put out to sea in the Regatta. The 834 is a little over 300 pounds.
