finaly the one that got away its hard to tell but this is growing on its stem and also got no love(way to go robin again)just like the gantner 699, growin on the main which resulted in a split main vine and actually had pumpkins set out on a secondary that grew under the pumpkin.I was also called in to save this one but...... in the vine removal and clean up efforts a slight move tying to free up the main then all of a sudden POW the pumpkin came off the vine. the plant is a 1232 martin realy nice shape. sorry dude!!!! the only upside to the story is that he grows them at his bar so we could mourn the loss with a cold adult beverage.I think it would weight out at 350-400#. will post pictures after the clean up soon
