My hubby swears he heard one of mine grow last summer. He said it makes the kind of noise a tire makes when it pops out on the rim. Personally, I have not heard one...but I believe it is possible.
Happy growing, Sue

Oh yeah. Pumpkin farts are real.

I didn't believe it either until I heard it myself. I'm sure it's nothing more than the stretching & internal cracking of the shell.

Have your friend consider all the noise they'd be making if they gained 30 lbs & 6 inches at the waist in 24 hours. LOL

Maybe it is farting, which could be the answer to the question...."How does the air get inside the pumpkin?" LOL

Farting in public is disrespectful. Hearing a pumpkin cracking is undesirable. So best for a pumpkin should be to shut up while growing :-)
