This pumpkin is so cute but it will never make it off the vine because it is rotting. That really sucks.

This pumpkin is large marge. It is probably going to weigh 30 pounds.

The vine to the right has been the best plant. I will be saving these seeds for next year. It currently has 6 healthy pumpkins growing on it. And the old wheel barrow holding wood for the fire pit. Super excited about the fall and Halloween. Wish I was further along with The Barn.

Gardening! Good for the soul!

I grew pumpkins and corn this year and both have been very successful. I will say that this has been a very enjoyable experience and has been good for my mind and soul. I can also use the corn stalks and pumpkins for Halloween, it can't get better than that.

I provided a little assistance to help pollinate this female flower when it opened. I hope I get a pumpkin.

and... the pumpkins

Pretty, but no female flowers yet. It's been several weeks so not sure if I will actually get any pumpkins this year.

Looking good but not a lot of male or female flowers on these plants.

These are big happy leaves but the plants are looking very yellow... not a good sign. I think I am going to give them some fertilizer this weekend to see if that helps them any.
