Well the low temps, with a few high temps in the 50's was not a good match for Agnes on the 1048 plant. She split open mid rib when the pumpkin started growing again. I though she could make it for a beautiful display pumpkin. Yesterday I saw the tell tale sign things were over. Fruit Flies. I will harvest the seeds and take a few pictures of her later. On a good note Margo, does not care for the cooler temps, but she is still putting on weight and is getting chunky. Only bad thing is the bigger this girl gets the lighter she gets in color. Time to break out the suntan oil :)
