I'm excited! This is my second year growing. My first time around didn't produce any pumpkins large then what you see here. This years first pumpkin is already the size of my entire crop of my first try. :-) Tuesday, July 13 View Page 2nd pumpkin looking good. Picture taken 12 July 2010 Tuesday, July 13 View Page 3rd pumpkin peeking through! Tuesday, July 13 View Page I NEVER imaged it would REALLY grow that much since my first try didn't produce anything worth mentioning. It shows that better seeds (thank you BillsBigPumpkins), tending the ground, LOTS of water (rained for almost 2 weeks straight here in SW Oklahoma) & LOVE really goes a long way. This is just my second try and all I can say is WOW. Daddy needs a new pair of shoes! Tuesday, July 13 View Page Beautiful picture.
