Summer has finally arrived. Consistently getting days into the 20's finally, only what, a month late?
New blooms have pretty much all but stopped now, I'm guessing what i have, is what i will get now.
Few new pics follow.
One of a handful of lumina's coming along - this is Gordy (named by Hottie)
Couple more Lumina's. These guys arent very large at this point & arent really expected to get too big. Will be interesting to see how they grow.
Biggest of the not-so-giants. It's about 1/4 the size of our biggest big max. Its still growing, which is promising, but, weve given up any hope of it getting to anywhere near being a "large" pumpkin. It is interesting to see that the giants are all taking the "squashed" shape that the really big ones get, despite really not being very large. I guess we were expecting they'd start normal and get all saggy as a result of their size. Doesnt seem to be the case. Hmm!
Last up, one of the mystery kins. Coming along quite nicely hiding under the canopy of leaves.
