My first pumpkin

[chriscross1966]

There's a few more on the plant coming on, variety unknown as seed saved by my sis-in-law from bought pumpkin last halloween...
I'll be growing an Atlantic Giant, Hooligan and Becky next year.....

Very good..

There's a bigger one on the plant (just a bit bigger, not lots). My best guess for variety would be Becky (or at least an F2 of Becky), Ghostrider or Jack. I'm hoping it's good eating (therefore Becky) as it's not really big enough to be a lantern (IMHO)... plus I generally grow things to eat.... though I'm a bit of a size queen tbh....

I was given some seed, Cinderella Coach, which seem to be doing very well so far.  I have never hads success with pumpkins but this year looks good.  Plenty of flowers but only one pumpkin per plant though.... is this normal

I cross fertilize with other squashes... . some times they're not very self-fertile.... also fertilize yourself, don't leave it to the bugs....

I think I will do the fertilising trick next year. I left mine to the critters and have an ok number of pumpkins but not a bumper crop
Anyway well done Chris the pumpkin suits those sunnies
