perfect pumpkin on main vine, 15 foot out, beautiful in shape and size, flower looked perfect. Went to pollinate this morning and when it opened it was a mutant mess, a swirl of lobes and seeds. I was pretty disappointed.
Here is the amazing part. I have pulled off about 15 to 20 pumpkins on the main and secondaries. I always open them up and peeked, everyone was perfect! What are the odds????With the plant not taking the heat well, bugs, etc, this was my fruit I needed. I have 1 more chance on the main at 19 feet. If it fails to pollinate, or I win the lottery with a deformed lober, or it splits, cracks or runs lol, game over for a fruit on the main vine. My plant is not set up well for a secondary fruit. I'm kind of nervous :-D My main vine is not set up for room for any other fruit.
