Here we go again this year.......... The pumpkin on my 1756 stopped growing a few days ago at about 275 pounds.
Three days at 30 pounds /day growth, then it slowed to a stop.
I came home from work yesterday to find the leaves collapsed on a few of the side vines. It looks like despite all my efforts, disease is going to get me again this year.

My 1411 is growing, but very slow.

The 1245 is my only hope for a decent pumpkin this year. I have a late pollination on that one (currently 13 DAP) that is growing nicely and the plant looks great. Time will tell if I can keep that plant healthy.

I'll be looking for a new patch to grow in next year.
