Zehr 1061

My Zehr 1061 plant has been a bust. I started 6-8 pumpkins on the plant
and every pumpkin developed a stem split. The split usually occurred when
the pumpkin weighed between 75 and 110 pounds. All the splits looked the same
and there was nothing I could do about it as the split went clear to the
center of the pumpkin. 

After seeing the results of the Zehr 1061, I wish I had not used the male
flowers from this plant to pollinate a number of pumpkins on other plants.
The stem split looks genetic to me. Has anyone else had this experience
with the Zehr 1061?
