A nice shot of the blossom end. The ribbing is beginning to deepen and there are some small skin checks developing between the blossom and the ground, which I believe is an indication of slowing growth and maturation of the fruit. I can't perceive any color change yet but that should be coming soon as well. I think I will water the plant tomorrow and then possibly cover the whole thing with row cover for the stretch run. Temperatures are supposed to start dipping into the 50s soon at night and if the pumpkin wants to keep growing, keeping it warmer under row cover will help.
