Pumpkin Update

As I said last week I thought it would be fun to just see how fast the mother of all pumpkins is growing so we started to measure its circumference. So far we have recorded the following measurements:
15th 67cm
17th 70cm
19th 76cm
It is incredible the rate of growth in just six days.
Julian is ensuring each day he cuts off any flowers that are forming to put all the energy into the main fruit, along with feeding it at least twice a week nature is doing the rest.
