Re: Pale Giant Pumpkin

Thanx, Don. I followed your advice. When do you start to cover your pumpkins at night? 60 degrees or lower? ----- Original Message ----- From: "dec" <dec@stratuswave.net>

i BETCHA THAT PUMPKIN HAS SOME GOOD OLE lLOYD AND mETTLER GENES IN IT! Those lighter colored ones usually go heavy to estimate. Don't fret, keep the plant healthy and the pumpkin growing till weigh-off. Don

I have a giant pumpkin about 4 feet(and getting bigger) across which I am
hoping will make it to a local Vermont weigh-off in October. I have kept it well shaded, and it is almost white. Do I worry about the color, or do I just 
grow it big?  This my first big giant.
