How long do I keep my AGs on the vine? One is 65 days out and I think done growing, or, how do I know it is done growing? In other words, when do I pick fruit?

Yoooo Cheddar,
Measure it everyday to see if its still getting bigger. Even when it aint growing on the outside it will be putting on a bit on the inside to get the seeds to mature.Anyway don't pick it until you really have to for a weigh-off.

I keep it as long as I can. I harvest the pumpkin when vine is dry, and there are no leafes at all (or earlier, it epends on temperetaure).
