And that's a wrap up. I did not expect that to happen. It's very frustrating seeing my pumpkin go down a week before the weighoff. There is next year. This season went very well except for the loss of the pumpkins. The 1223.5 was a strong plant. The pumpkin was putting on nice gains with the peak gains being at 33 pounds a day. There is nothing I could've done to prevent the pumpkin from going down. I am going to plant winter rye in my patch. I think that will help a lot. I need to get the patch all cleaned up first before I do that. Next year I will be growing my own estimated 1275 Swenson. I will be doing two plants again. This seed has so much potential! I can't wait to see what it produces! To everyone out there wanting some seeds I have you covered. Just send me an email to remind me so I can write everything down. That is a wrap up of the season. I will still be going to the giant pumpkin weighoff at the Topsfield fair next Friday. I will still post pictures. I will keep you guys updated on the patch cleanup. Thank you for all that supported me this growing season. I really appreciated it. Thank you :)
