Lots of rain and better heat. The 1096.5 developed a split near the stem. It is not into the cavity, but it is holding water and hard to get at due to the angle of the stem. This won't be a competition pumpkin anyway. The 893 is growing faster, adding 10# per day the past 4 days. It is now at 453# with a shot at making 600. The 1068 grew some more and is oozing from several places. It added 9# per day and now is at estimated 790#. Hopefully it can make 900#. Big problem is the wet ground. I might have trouble getting it loaded and up the big grassy hill if it doesn't dry out.
