I have taped my pumpkin, its my PB

on 9/14 OTT 330 LB
on 9/21 OTT 369 LB

I would guess one of those figures must be off, I believe the second one more than the first, I do think the best growing is over, the night temps have been in the mid 40s and the temp under the blankets was 69 at the lowest point.

I have managed to get the morning temp under the blankets back up to 74 by doing a better job of covering and removing the blankets during the day.

Day temps are going back up this week to around 80, and the clouds have past,still no rain.
