Anyone have a pumpkin that has these little splits on the side of there pumpkin? The splits arnt even a 1/4 inch long and arnt deep at all, but they are on just the sides of the pumpkin, they leak a little but heal up quick when deconil is put on them. I have never seen a pumpkin do this before, what do you think causes this, just the rapid growth? I have approx 5 of these little splits. Its not a split that puts the pumpkin in jeapordy but if I get one near the blossom end it could mean trouble.

Stretch marks! The ladies use cocoa butter! Try a few brews and you won't notice them as much :)
