"Ring of Fire" day 35. Who would thing this back up pumpkin set on the first secondary off the main would be leading the pack on the 1723 Marshall plant. Not posting any huge numbers just a nice steady grower with no issues what so ever except for a very short stem. I have kept this pumpkin cooler than past years so maybe it will bode well for growing a little longer and going heavier at the end of the season. I did manage to fandangle my way back to its location and take a measurement this morning. Taped circ 100, ss 66, ee 64 = 230 ott for and est. wt of 265 lbs. Last years Lucy Lu taped this weight on day 25. Definitely an uphill battle trying to over come that deficit.
