Today I noticed the blossom end of Amy Vinehouse's pumpkin is looking wrinkled. Pressed gently and it seems there is more "give" in the area, like its getting soft inside. :( All the rain over the last 3 weeks maybe caused a calcium deficiency? Just washed all the good stuff right out of the soil. Rollercoaster couple of weeks, with the vines drowning, discovering squash vine borers in both vines, and now my only pumpkin looks like she's rotting away. At least she's made it to OTT 87 inches, estimating at 20lb. My goal as a first timer was 100lb, so hope I will get another pumpkin to set and grow for a second chance!
