I'm tough on myself, I set an inch goal rather than a weight goal and got what I asked for but lost percent heavy for weight somewhere? The inches "should" have put it in the 2300 club? Thats my next step I failed to make.

I wouldn't have guessed it would go light. Sorry... I can understand the disappointment. But an air bubble is still not as bad as a split. Forget the chart, just try for a bigger OTT next year.

That is a nice pumpkin Larry. We all have a way of convincing ourselves that our pumpkins should have been bigger. In fact, if you ever ask a competitive pumpkin grower how big their pumpkin is the only honest answer they can give you is: Not big enough.

Ill be waiting for this seed availability. May have to cross it with a 2464 Stelts or 2297 Werner? You provided great detail of how you arrived at this giant which I very much appreciate. Congrats for a great result ;-)
