Got to NYC yesterday. Coming home tomorrow. I'm exited to see the pumpkins after about a week being gone. The first pumpkin "the beast" will be at dap 11 while the other pumpkin will be at dap 8. Woody has turned the main vine. I will put mill fabric down for the beast this weekend or early next week I think. The other pumpkin will stay on the vine until I am sure which one I will keep. Woody told me that the beast is the size of a small cantaloupe. He told me that on Tuesday. Not sure how big the other pumpkin will be. The 1st 1980 female may open this weekend. I'm not really sure about it. I saw a small pumpkin inside it when i left so maybe it opened or maybe it dident. Anyway when I get home I will be able to describe things better. It's had when I came even access my plant. Get ready for a lot of diary entires from me tommorow though. Next post will be pictures and a big description of the plants!
