DAP 14....no pic...because I think I've lost it. I found another SVB entry in the middle of the vine and cut it out, then wrapped it with foil like I've seen some others do. Leaves look fine, so I assume the plant is still alive, but the pumpkin is now tender to the touch in certain places especially the bottom, and there's been no growth. I knew I wasn't going to get much out of this seed but I hadn't planned on throwing up a goose egg. Have to say I'm a bit depressed now. If anything , let this be a cautionary tale to new growers. Take pest prevention seriously, and don't get your seeds from a hardware store...
