Got 1 huge pumpkin (definitely carving size) out of this plant. Cut most of the vine away this weekend as it was just grasshopper bait. Further down on this vine there's another itty bitty pumpkin growing, so didn't cut that vine. Doubt it'll grow to anything before the plant is killed by frost. But here's my pumpkin!
Surprisingly there's no flat spots on the pumpkin! It actually grew round, and I didn't even turn it once while it was growing! Maybe because it was laying on mulch, which is soft & gives? But I'll definitely be carving this badboy up!! I think I'll try to grow pumpkins next year purposefully.. just not in the middle of my yard taking over & killing my roses!!
