Heck yeah, and a looker too! Do you just use a sheet or do you have a canopy over it for extra shade?

Thanks Andy, I am going to try just a sheet next year. Every year I battle stem rot, and then BES every few years. I am thinking just a sheet keeps the pumpkin drier while a sheet and a rain canopy might not allow enough air flow causing rot issues.

Well I'LL be Andy...finally a pleasant update and a beauty at that! Plant still looks lush so hopefully lots left in the fuel tank! All the best down the stretch.
