Looking back on my first attempt at a giant pumpkin in 2022… My 808 Grubbs 19 seed was doing great, growing about 25 lbs a day by the chart when mice ate a hole on the bottom of the pumpkin on about day 50 after pollination. This ended the season in mid August, pumpkin was just under 1,000 lbs by the crane scale. Tried again in 2023 with both plants lost to bacterial disease in late July.
