Well, not every pumpkin can turn out as planned and this is by far not as advertised;-) The plant did have a burn issue that caused the weeds to get thick around this plant. Now the weeds are a blessing because of the dips and bumps that have developed the risk for a split is high, so slowing growth is actually a good thing for this pumpkin. Of all my pumpkins this one could be in the running for ugliest at whatever weigh-off it goes to.
