Do you want to see how much weight a large vine can hold? In other words how heavy can a blossom down pumpkin get before it breaks from the vine? My guess is this one will hit 190 lbs before it breaks off. If it touches the ground before then I might keep it, although last year one of these stem cracks caused one to rot. The supports will need reinforcement. Stay tuned...!
