Well I tried shutting up this year with my diary and try to concentrate on growing. Lol. It didn't help much but can't omplain in a whackey wwather year here. A foot of rain in June didnt help the soil community much. I had to dig a drainage ditch where my 2323 plant's main vine and move the main over 5' just to have a chance on getting a pumpkin on the plant. My 1985 Miller doubled up, my 2032 spit up the base early on. So I had to go with 1676.5 and 2002 Hawkkley in those spots. Still all 3 spots produced a pumpkin to scale.
