Had a crazy hail storm the other evening up to the size of golf balls, although kind of lucky as we were on the edge of it, reports of hail the size of grapefruits in the area.

Anyways my plants got a damaged a fair bit, but I think they will be fine, lucky they were kind of protected by some large trees. But one pumkin which I only had a cloth over got smacked and theres a nice dent the size of a golf ball, with the cracks going maybe a half inch deep. Should I do anything about or just hope it heals without any aid, (its around 70lbs right now. I am glad I built a shelter over my big one.
