For sure would have been a keeper! I seen a really distorted 8 lope in the past but it never took pollination. That one you have is nicely uniformed!

Nice. Hows was the shape of the pumpkin? I had this one, but eventually it split because really it was two four lobers that fused.

Could be a fully fused twin 4 lobers. Is the stem wide?

That's cool to see.
I have a photo of an 8 lobe on our website https://www.igpga.com/how-to-pollination-day/

Could have sworn I had one of an 11 lobe

It didn't appear to be fused. The shape was wide and flat like a pancake instead of symmetrical around the axis of the stem.
