There is a hole in the blossom end. It has been there for a few weeks and so far I have not been able to push a stem off a pigweed all the way through. It would almost be a miracle if this makes it. I know how thin the blossom ends are. It seems that pumpkins no longer have "snouts" in the modern 2,009 Wallace era. I think the snouted ones were more resistant to blossom end splits. On the flip side the ones with snouts were probably more likely to get a dill ring and split at a rib. Always a trade off.
