It's the Great Pumpkin!

I picked our first pumpkin on Monday. It turned orange a few weeks ago and stopped growing, so I thought it was time.


And this one should give you an idea of the grandeur of the gourd.


It's dainty. We planted a sugar pumpkin (produces small fruit) and a carving pumpkin (produces large fruit). This one came from the carving pumpkin. Cross-breeding?

Hahaha! That was great. I loved seeing your pumpkin and scrolling down to see it in your hand -- what a difference perspective makes.

I know nothing of gardening or pumpkins, so no help here, unfortunately.
