My pumpkin is getting what appears to be sticky, sweaty type beads on the surface. Is it getting ready to split?

Some will do that when the skin isnt as soft.Usually isnt a bad thing.

I've had this happen so much before, every time I'd check the fruit I would have to tare the sheet off the fruit due to much sap sticking to the sheet.

Those fruit usually went heavy if that helps.
