Here is the plant. If you can spot the pumpkin and the 5 gallon bucket in the photo. Plant is getting too big to get it all in the photo. I am going to have to start terminating vines very soon. Took 3 people to put a pallet under the pumpkin last night. Everything survived with no damage. I don't own a lifting ring so a pallet, a pad, and lots of sand is the only way to go for me. The plant itself is extremely aggressive. The leaves are massive and the vines extremely thick. I think I may have overdone the nitrogen supplementation this year :) . I have been continuing to spray for PM weekly as well as adding a foliar feed for calcium. I have struggle immensely in the past with lack of calcium causing my pumpkins to split. I hope this helps as it has in the past.
