Re: Is it done???

I'm afraid I'd believe it (that it's an AG). My 922.5 Emmons fruit basically
stopped growing on day 35, at around 90 inches circumference. What's
more frustrating is that I've tried this for four years now, and every August
when growth should be ramping up, my growth slows down. Everything is
good until that point. I have no idea why I can't get them to grow in August.
This is extremely frustrating...

Are you sure this is an Atlantic Giant seed??  Many of the
smaller variety of pumpkins will mature this early and get to
this size.  I would keep any other fruit on this plant and
question if it is really an AG.
