Hello All,

It has been a while since my last update. The patch has had some transitions in the past month. Some of them were positive and the other was negative. The 1250 Kline plant is Deceased. I had been fighting dying leaves and last Sunday I was examining the main and the stump had become rotten. I have removed the plant from the patch to eliminate any risk of disease as the plant further decays. It was a sad day in the patch. :-(

Now for some good news. The other 4 plants are doing really well. They continue to thrive in my lush green environment. I currently have four pumpkins set. One on each plant. My largest to date has a OTT 121LBS. I am pretty excited. This is definately the largest pumpkin I have grown to date. It is currently putting on approximately 10 pounds per day. I can only hope it continues to grow and we will see what I have come September.
