On the 1832.5 I noticed a wet spot by the crown and investigated. My finger ended up going into the stump due to rot. So some surgery was required. First I dug out easily-parted rot with my hands, as well as soil around the stump. Then I used a paddle bit on a drill and a knife to cut a big slot in the stump and used an old spoon to scrape away rot in the inside. Sprayed with hydrogen peroxide and then put a clear cover over the stump (not pictured). I'll keep monitoring, but I'm not worried about it as the pumpkin isn't going to last long anyways. But good practice!
