I watered last night and weather is helping with that today. Still slow growth I’d say. Hasn’t hit the can since placing. Will weigh off in October. Either in the youth or adult division. My son’s pumpkin. . I do the work 😂
@@JoeDc101 It's probably a combination of growing on the grass plus the plant being a little small. My plant should be over 900 ft² once it completely fills in. I have a bushel gourd growing on grass, and the grass is stealing a lot of nutrients from the plant, and it is not growing well at all.
Positioning looks much better. Do you plan on bringing it to the weigh off?

@@pumpkinista yeah I figured that was the case. Definitely the smallest vines and patch I’ve had.
They're very needy! It is already looking bigger than a normal pumpkin, so it's still worth it.
@@pumpkinista oh yes for sure. I think the seed was from a plant that was 1,065. But I’d love to hit 500lbs. But always beat year prior. 🤞
