Oh no! The backyard patch has done it again. This time, it is my daughter's pumpkin. We were checking Alanna's 770.5 today and found out it's starting to turn to mush. Poor girl. It hadn't grown more than a few pounds in the past week. Final measurements from September 3rd were 71.5, 70.5, 103 for an OTT of 245 and estimated weight of 318 pounds. Not the biggest, but for a 6 year old, grown in a small patch of untested soil, on a secondary vine, she was quite proud of it. Pics will come tomorrow as we dispose of it. The kids are already conspiring as to how to go at it.
