Drum roll, please! I harvested our first pumpkin yesterday! My sons have been checking their pumpkins every day, and are so excited, particularly for their personal pumpkin with their name on it. Here's my 2-year-old with his gardening prize! It's only about 9 lbs., but it's a great size for him. In the end, largely because the vines were an entangled mess, I decided to prune out pumpkins that were obviously on the same vine as another, but otherwise just to let them all grow. Now I've got about 15 good pumpkins on the way.
