My only field pumpkin has become "a would have been". After a few days of heavy rainfall and cold temperatures, it decided to develop BES. It was 37 days old, taped 133 lbs and weighed 134 lbs. It would have been a new European record, beating the old record of 126 lbs. It was still growing when I harvested it.
Seed used was the 85 Eaton, one I will be planting again next year.
