Hi guys,
I just ended my pumpkin season with my first big pumpkin(I will have to post some pics in my diary). The pumpkin looks great,but when me and my Dad moved it the stem crack in half! I see there is a hole in the stem, but does it go all the way into the cavity?

thanks

Jason, most if not all ag stems have an opening in the center. So long as there is no hole into the cavity your pumpkin should not be disqualified. After the weigh off you can use some tooth picks or glue to stick it back on for display.
