My pumpkin tore near the flower end of the pumpkin, I put garden sulphur in the tear but it has me worried, I uploaded a picture to my diary if any one can help please.

As you can see in the picture the tear did not go into the pumpkin but what are the chances this pumpkin will grow to full size and can I still enter it into a weigh-off if it doesn't get any worse than this or is my pumpkin done.

Katrina.........i was just looking at your picture. it doesnt look that bad, just keep an eye on it, and dust as needed. keep your eyes open for any signs of rot, and if need be, but a fan out there.

Keep your injury covered with a fungicide. If you do not have powdered Captan use any and treat the injury at least once a week.
