So, I will just post an update on the Holland. The Holland is getting bigger. Circumference 79 in., top/bottom 57, and side/side 56 in. The OTT is 192 inches. According the giant pumpkin chart it weighs approximately 162 pounds or almost double my previous best. The circumference of the pumpkin increased 16 inches in a week. I just really hope that it turns orange. It is still cool to grow something this large but I really, really do not like cream colored pumpkins. I think this will seal the deal for me joining team orange. I am thrilled to set a personal best, but it doesn't seem like a pumpkin without some good orange. I guess until I can grow over 500lbs., I should just stick to tried and true orange seeds.
