1353 DeBacco ’08 (x 1544.5 Revier)

Day: 30
OTT: 254.5”
Est. weight: 355 lb

Due a mysterious soft spot that developed about 2ft. from the stem of this pumpkin it is now growing on just half a plant. I cut the main vine right near the pumpkin shortly after this picture and now, only the plant material beyond the pumpkin (that is the newest growth) is left to support the pumpkin as it hopefully continue to grow.

On the bright side this pumpkin is still the best looking in the patch and still has the best shape and color. Now with only half the plant left the final size is going to be reduced but it still should be a crowd pleaser.
