Growth slowed way down on the 1047.5. I was blaming it in dry cooler weather, Then I went out to give it some water and fertilizer with the hose end feeder when I found 2 small pumpkins stealing from the big one. They are removed, and we are supposed to get some warmer weather and rain. Hopefully it will pick up again.
The 1818 and 962 are still creeping along, gaining just 1" OTT every 3 to 4 days. I just want them to hold on until the weighoffs. We have 2 going on the 1965 Brandt. Biggest is around 180#. It won't be anything great but we aren't giving up.
The long gourds are rotting on the blossom ends. We might get 2 to the weighoff. Its time to cut them off, wipe down with bleach and store them in the garage.
