Ok, here are the estimated weights:
Pumpkin A: 227" OTT - 247 lbs.
Pumpkin B: 236" OTT - 276 lbs.
Pumpkin C: 231" OTT - 260 lbs.
Pumpkin D: 167" OTT - 105 lbs.
So that's 888 pounds of pumpkin from 300 square feet of soil
and three plants. Not bad. Not bad....
I think you could have grown an 800+ pounder by growing one
well-cared-for plant in the same area.
