I think it has slowed way down. Circ- 98, W - OTT 56, L - OTT 59 = 213 - approx 214 lbs per the chart. It is probably a little more due to the stem side thickness - OTT measurements are kind of an even out to adjust. I hit the whole plant with fungicide before vacation but we had a few rains while I was away. Bad news- When I came back from vacation the main vine caught a fungus to about 4 feet from the pumpkin and all was almost dead from the ground up. I thought the vine still living could support growth( it is but slow). I will keep watering any doing the fungicide to for remainder or the plant.
