You have company!!!
My only pumpkin, 191 ott at day 30, on my only remaining plant, the 815
Checkon, went bad past Sunday. Developed soft spot near blossom end. I cut it
apart earlier today. Estimated weight a little over 150 pounds but the wall
thickness was impressive. Much heavier than most of the fruits I've culled at
this size. Might be good news for anyone who gets an 815 to a scale this Fall.
Sorry about your bad luck, hang in there.
