I just read another post where a grower said his pumpkin was only 4 days from pollination and already weighed 5 pounds. I have a fruit on my 1097.5 at five days and another on my 905 Ailts at four days, and neither are anywhere near 5 pounds, unless a pumpkin the size of a softball weighs 5 pounds that is. Is something wrong here???

Yes...........estimating skills need to be tuned a bit. :)

I hope you don't mean MY estimating skills Doc. I know how big a softball is ;)

I don´t think it´s a problem to take the kitchen scales out and weigh a small pumpkin. Everything else is just a rough guess during the first days.
