Add this to the list of reasons not to plant anywhere near a tall tree...some thunderstorms over the past few days caused water to pool on the leaves 30+ft up and drop onto leaves near the base of the plant; apparently, the repeated impacts was enough to completely destroy several on the Dill and a few on the 1478. That and I'm having to clear fallen Big Leaf Maple leaves from the plants at least once a day :). Strangely, the tree they're planted under-ish, is the only one in my yard not shading them at all, heh (foliage doesn't begin until higher than the sun's angle of elevation). I'll get pictures of the pumpkins up in two days! The Dill is at 62lbs - 6lbs ahead of the last Dill on the same day - and the 1478, though slower, is still in the 55lb range. Much improved weather is on the way.
