The 1381 Swarts. The OTT is the biggest I've grown yet and it's still doing 15.5 pounds a day last 7 days. A few days ago I found a #9 wire U shaped pin I used to pin down the main vine. I had forgotten to remove it and it was halfway between the stump and pumpkin and had girdled the main vine to half the size in that area....duh. Also pictured are my two biggest helpers....my wife helped with all the vine burying every single night I went out there....and no, she wasn't the one that left the wire pin on the vine. Our daughter has her own pumpkin as well that is getting close to 300 pounds!
