Plant health is still going strong as August starts. As expected from the last measurement the growth rate has continued to slow down, but it is still growing which is good news. The "New Hope" is that it will continue to grow for many days at a consistent rate to reduce the chance of splitting. While the pace may not be what I have had in the past, if the pumpkin can hold together, it has a chance at a new personal best which is all any grower can ask for.
