1524 Fulk today on day 33. 131.5 inch circumference, OTT of 288.5, estimated weight of 539 lbs. Growth of the pumpkins has been excellent lately but I'm seriously concerned about the plants. We've continued getting way too much humidity and rain along with very hot temps last week. Some plants, the 1524 in particular, are losing quite a few leaves due to the leafstems rotting and it is trying to move into the vines. I'm fighting it off the best I can for now but the weather has got to get drier or my plants could be in trouble. My stump covers are helping a ton though, no stump problems to report which is a miracle!
