I measured the circumference of my pumpkin this afternoon. It's at day 25. Circ.= 74.75".

My plant is still getting some sunburn(or heatburn?) on newer growth. I don't know if it's caused by the genetics of the plant, or some other issue. Soil moisture has been good. Highs lately haven't been much over 80 degree's F. My plant is shaded by a tree, for a good part of the morning. Maybe this is the issue. When the sun does start hitting the plant, it's likely at a high intensity; instead of a gradual increase in intensity in a full sun situation.
