to pick or not to pick?

Ok so I tried and failed to get my projected three digits.

Some of you were very kind to suggest months ago that

I could get to 500. It seems that SVB did me in before I

had the right chemicals. The Maryland record is not

endangered by me...

But I do have a pumpkin and it seems to be over 50

pounds and many strangers who walk by think it is

HUGE. Ha, I tell them. It is more than nothing for a

novice and I do have two luminas in the backyard.

Alas I still have a question.

When to cut it off and bring it inside? It's a rather

white fruit. Up close it has some off white spotty

coloration (not rot though). The plant has nearly

nothing going for it with just a handful of barely

standing leaves. The tarp is still over it and I'm

pondering it's removal to get more color. Any

tips ya'll? I sure would not enjoy it being acquired

by a stranger...

thanks.
