Today is my 30 day mark.At 20 days it was 155ott.Today i went out and measured its 245 ott,yesterday i measured it was 235ott,So i double checked it,and triple checked yes i can't beleave it myself is it possible to gain that much weight over night.Im leaving tonight for the weekend hope when i get back sunday it hasent split.It seems very solid,the blossem end or backside has no hollow sound when i tap it(not near the blossem itself)it looks like a huge cube.Has anyone else gotton that kind of weight this season ?.Its hot up here in N.H near 90s last 2 days,a week or so it was up and down due to the cool temps.I think like 22 lb a day i cant bealeave it jumped like that to a megga gain.Best of luck to all.John G...

My pumpkin is averaging 7 to 8 pounds a day at the moment. I measured last night it was 185 Ott this morning it measured at 188 Ott. Som far the pumpkin seems solid. I have pictures of this pumpkin(Hercules)posted in the growers diary .
