Sad news today. We went ahead and cut her off today at an est of 1,040lbs. The hole at the top of the pumpkin is probably 2-3 inches deep and sapping from all sides and pooling. Fan is not helping. Alcohol is not helping. Only way I think we can save this fruit was to cut it off and stop the flow of sap. See what happens.
