last year we were carving pumpkins and we had a lot of pumpkins ranging in sizes and colors i even had a 50 pound one. This spring they started coming up and i originally started plucking them but i decided to go ahead and let it grow. I thought was a small pumpkin like jack be little at first but i left for vacation for 2 weeks and when i got back the leaves were huge! each leaf is 16 inches wide by 20 inches long. so it started putting out female flowers and i pollinated one about 2 day ago and it grew from the size of a golf ball to the size of a grapefruit in just that short time! and the vines are super thick even just for the new vines at the end. Im just so excited to see what kind of pumpkin this plant will end uop producing
