I just noticed I have a small split on both of my babies! It's not a large split but I'm worried. They are my first giant pumpkins and I'd like them to survive for the weigh off in two weeks. http://i912.photobucket.com/albums/ac330/Caper736/20160917_154019_zpsc5c7knyz.jpg

Although you don't like to see any cracks on the blossom end,The pics with your thumb doesn't look like anything to worry too much about ...sulpher or captan dust if Ya have some...I didn't look at the rest of the pics (it's a pain on the phone)...good luck...be vigilant

Update. The small Cracks haven't gotten any bigger looks like they were just in the skin! I put more captain paste on them as a precaution. I've been holding back on feeding and giving less water. It's been a couple days now since I noticed them should I be OK to start feeding again?
