Day 60 for these pumpkins today, sure wish I had gotten them pollinated 10-15 days earlier, Spambie and Richmond Dave are right, we need outer screen-house and inner hoophouses early in the season to get an early pollination. July 1-10 used to be the golden standard for ideal pollination where we grow, but that has changed it seems.
1126 pumpkin grew 181 lbs in the past 10 days, maintaining a nice steady daily gain even with the cooling temperatures. 2032 pumpkin grew 114 lbs in th same 10 day period, but also started a faster decline in daily gains than its bigger patchmate.
Looks like I might have one pumpkin that can get me close to 1K this year, and 2 other pumpkins that Andrea now refers to as “great porch pumpkins”.
