The pumpkin on my 972 Groenewold plant split on the blossom end. Maybe due to the greater than usual moisture we have gotten recently? I didn't measure it for awhile, but it looked like it was growing fairly well by my standards. I think it would have been quite orange, if it would have stayed together. It wasn't my favorite shape of a pumpkin. Pear-shaped, with a wider and taller blossom end.

So I'm down to just the 1474 Clementz. I like it's shape better, as it's mostly round so far. It was a later pollination though: July 17th.
