Morse "Big Max" pumpkin vines climbed the wall behind our small, urban
garden. Fruit started to set in early July, so we went with it--I devised
a sling to support the pumpkin, and it's now 55 inches around--only 7
inches smaller than the largest in the patch. The interresting part is
that it's growing nearly perfectly round. Unfortunately, it's severely
blemished because the local squirells used it as a convenient launch pad
during the sunflower feeding frenzy earlier this year.

That picture is so cool...maybe you're one to something....What if someone
figured out how to construct an electromagnetic field with enough strength to
suspend a pumpkin fruit in mid-air? No stem stress, no danger from
moles/gophers/etc, and it would be round. I think I may look into
this........
