<< The split was about 4 inches long starting near the
base of the stem and into the top of the pumpkin. It
was 3/8ths of an inch wide at the widest and up to
three inches deep. I first brushed it down with
Capton powder daily for two days. When it appeared
dry and stable, I made up some flour dough and then
rolled the dough in Capton powder. I kneaded in about
two teaspoons of Capton powder and pushed the mix into
the split to seal it >>

MY QUESTION FOR THE LIST IS IF THIS PUMPKIN NOW GOES TO A WEIGH OFF. IS THE
PATCH REMOVED AND THE PUMPKIN INSPECTED TO SEE IF THE SPLIT GOES IN TO THE
CAVITY
