Bottoms up!. This is the pumpkin from the July 6 photo with Rabbit damage. It decided to grow over the stem. It is on a secondary about 3; from the main. I terminated the secondary at the stem, and dug a hole to release stress. This morning it was full of water and the blossom was getting wet. So I soaked up the water and scraped off the blossom. This evening it will get treated with Daconil and get a tarp suspended overhead. It is on one of the 1047.5 plants, self pollinated to preserve the great color. It is estimated 475# today. Most of the rabbit damage is going to be hidden by a rib.
