Hy
I live in Austria ( Europe) I have a pumpkin on, who is 19 Days old and he has 73,9 lbs. My Question: Is this big or not? My pumpkin was growing 16 lbs last day! Can anybody say if it is big or not? I will grow a 220 lbs pumpkin, this is not so much, buut this is my first season with not so good seeds! Can I grow about 220 lbs or not??? Lg Schiedi

Type "benchmarks" in the site search box (upper right this page) and you'll find plenty of info...good luck, Duff

Day 19 and 74 lbs is fine. If the weather is fine and you do your work ok, you could easily hit 500 lbs with that one. 16 lbs a day at day 19 is quite good.

I think I do my work ok, but I am in the first season and I am happy with 200-300 lbs, I think 500 are too much for my first season and the seeds what I have are not the best. Next season it will be better with the wallace, jutras, giarrusso seeds.
