Here's my last pumpkin on it's way to Fort Wayne, Indiana for the Hilgers Market Weigh-Off a couple of weeks ago. It is off the 384 Huffer x 1290 Poirier grown on the main in 250 square feet. I also pollinated a pumpkin on the first and largest sidevine of this plant using the 1159 Richards '07 as pollinater. When the pumpkin on the main started to take off, I amputated the sidevine and let that one grow just for seeds. The sidevine pumpkin is suprisingly decent sized and still growing.
