We got one! Wow. I couldn’t be any more happier right now. I made the decision this morning to go with a pumpkin in the middle of the plant. They were all on tertiarys and for 6 days old I had to go for one of them! It’s pretty nuts. About A week after I lost my 1st one I had a bunch of tertiarys pop with pumpkins. Went with this one as it had a nice long vine and nice shape and is growing good! Going to be interesting with tons of energy surrounding it. Plenty of plant behind this baby!! Never give up. I could’ve thrown in the towel weeks ago and planted mustard but no. I didn’t want to give up. Today marks change in the patch! 63 days until the Topsfield fair. Let’s get her on a scale!
