I weighed my 1463 the other day and didn't expect to see the kilogram scale read into the 700's. Quick math and I knew it was over the 1400's and final math from google conversion put it at 1572 pounds. I certainly didn't expect that. I really wish I didn't put the small pumpkin on couple 2x4's for the first week and a half when it was small. The small base pushed in the bottom and that's where I had my split way up underneath. I'll use a flat hard surface from day one now on. I ramp my main vine to keep it rooted later in growth, but early pollinations are in the air. That's where the stacked 2x4's support came into play.
