22 August, update

This years is a bust. The pumpkins have almost stopped growing. That’s not to say that they ever grew at a reasonable rate this year with high temperature and no rain. If there is no change in the growth rate soon I will call it quits for this year. I will continue to update the growth curves until there is NO change but pictures are depressing. I have 4 pumpkins if you can call them that. The Mombert pumpkin is already very orange but still growing very slow so I will begin to measure every 2 or 3 days. The McIntyre pumpkins are still very pale white and smaller than the Mombert but also growing.
