This is the bottom of the 2144 Baron plant. It's thick back here. Because it rolled over its blossom end, I've got to get down on my hands and knees and slide my phone under it to get a photo of the button. Have you ever wondered if your pumpkin is growing, but not showing up on the tape? I mean, is it possible for there to be growth happening without an increase in the OTT? In this rare exception there is. As this gap fills in with pumpkin, it would not show up under cc or side to side or front to back. It's also a note that this big gap is sort of like having a concave bottom on your fruit The OTT doesn't take into account. The fact that there is a huge gap of probably 75 pounds that are lost here.
