Day 77 on the slow consistent growing 789 Dixon. As turns out, we should have made a better effort to get this one to the Fair, but in my wildest dreams I didn’t figure that it would be this pumpkin to have an issue.

There was some discussion about temperature shifts and overnight fall lows adding to causing late splits, but this is a first for me losing a fruit so late in the game. I had a fruit rib split on me, in a different dill ring spot, but never blossom end split.

Oh well, it’s a silicone butt display pumpkin now.
