This question is directed primarily at those who
have been competing in weighoffs consistently for many years :
When you harvested your pumpkins
for weighoffs, were they still increasing in size? Could they
have obtained a greater weight if left on the plant longer? I'm looking for an
answer based on the average rather than a year-by-year breakdown.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike--the season seems just
about right here,for the first Sat. in
October.
By then the plants are nearly spent and the fruit are
down to a pound or two/day,if any growth at all.At that stage a few pounds/day
cannot be measured,unless over a week,say a gain of 1" OTT/week would be 1-2
pounds/day.
Cheers--AE
