So once again our growing season did not go as planned at all. However, we were lucky enough to come away with 1 nice pumpkin and a personal best. We only have a total of 450sq.ft. of growing space and were planning on only choosing 1 plant to grow over the entire patch and go for the big one this year...That didn't happen. The main split laterally on our 1382 Bryson, our favorite seed going into the season. We were left with two 1102 Huydic plants and neither one could be selected as the clear winner for various reasons. We ended up losing 4 pumpkins to BES' on one plant and got our only pumpkin on the other, which was a much smaller plant(maybe 150sq.ft.)
This is a shot of the 1102 Huydic in the greenhouse right before we cut it on Friday.
