My sister-in-law's AG is small too. It's also Orange and looks ripe. Her plants are small, two of them together are not even 1/4 the size of my one.

Looking forward to them, hope you get it fixed soon.

I have no idea what mine one weighs.  I think I could measure it but could not pick it up.   They should be orange.  Is youar grandson pleased with them?

He is more than happy promised all his little friends they can have one as well!! (I can see me having to pop to shops like I did last year they all died) and plonked a few on the ground ready for him and his little pals come round to collect them!! Only thing I cheat with. We will have to plant more next year only problem is they grow so big I had to train them around all the paths between the beds x ::)

Just a little question...does anybody's AG have a small green 'nipple' around the 'flower' end of the pumpkin..and I don't mean physical way..just small coloured ring around the old scar where flower used to be..
I'm just trying to resolve the identity of one of my 'queensland blue'squashes..that wasn't one.. ::)
And one of my mystery squashes is starting to look very  much like pumpkin..and as none of my AG's turned out to be AG now I'm wondering if somehow my labels got mixed up... ::)
