Hey Ed, Congrates on getting 'Vegus' as far as you did. We all know the perils of growing. It surely is hard to see the plant produce so well, only to have your hopes dashed. Keep your chin up, the next one could break all records.

Hi List MembersThis pumpkin growing hobby can sure get you upset some days. A quick trip to
the patch this morning to check on my golden boy "Vegas", ruined my day. A
large crack had appeared through the side ribs. Pumpkin blood was dripping
into the soil. There wasn't anything I could do to save him. Vegas has gone
off to a better patch somewhere. He was 290 ott with a circumference of 133
inches at 46 days since pollination.Oh the pain
