729.0 DeBacco ’17 (F: 1463.5 Hoelke ‘13 x 400 Crowell)
Day: 57
OTT: 313” (official weigh-off measurement)
Est. 671 pounds (using the 2013 Team-Pumpkin chart)
As you can see, I did have a soft spot that develop on the stem, but I was able to catch it early and get it to dry out completely and as a result this pumpkin should keep for quite awhile. If you can catch some potential problems early and apply some corrective measures you can (sometimes) save the pumpkin and be able to get an official weight and compete at a weigh-off which is always a good feeling.
