perhaps they became pollinated by another plant. Do you have squashes or other types of plants close to your pumpkins?

The fruit's pollinator has nothing to do with the shape of the fruit. If the fruit(from last year) that gave you that seed was pollinated by something different than an AG then that may be the cause.

no other pumpkin types being grown all generic atlantic giants i researched it and it looks like a dill ring but can they appear in a young pumpkin? the other pumpkin just looks weird to me but is growing fine so will see any advice if it is a pumpkin with a dill ring can those happen in generic ags
