There is already some orange color developing which makes this pumpkin stand out in the patch already. I did notice some sapping at the stem, but with the hot and humid weather this is to be expected. Even for a 30 day old pumpkin it seems to want to develop ribs and will most likely have a mottled orange color to it. It is still a long way from weigh-offs but there is great potential for both size and color from this pumpkin. The plant looks great and only time will tell how this pumpkin will end up.
