I just posted a picture of a field pumpkin I have growing of off a 80 Larue . Orange just showed up today in it . Wondering how many more days left for it to grow ? Weigh off is still a long ways off . Already is a PB it if goes to the FP chart .

Hoping for 10-15 days !!!1

Some growth during the next 10 days could still be possible, but it could be some very very slow growth though. Just leave the fruit on the vine and measure OTT every 5 days, I´m sure you will see some tiny differences. In addition to that piece of growth, the fruit should be able to keep some weight until weigh-off, whereas the fruit cut off the vine will start to dry and to lose weight.

You will get 10-15 days growth for sure. Once they start to show orange their growth does slow down for sure but they still grow quite a bit. Not the 4 inches a day CC you saw earlier but still grow.

Thanks for the info Mehdi and Scott . Growth has really slowed but still is still giving me some more told inches . I am more excited about my field pumpkins than my AG`s .
