Very sorry to see this Jamie. I was really rooting for her. Either way, we get to grow giant pumpkins so we are the luckiest guys on earth. LETS GO LIGHTNING CUB!!!!

This hobby can be soul crushing sometimes. Sorry to hear that Jamie.

Thanks Nick and Ed. It sure can be tough, but I agree Nick - we're lucky to have found a cool hobby and the great friends that come with it

Very sorry to see so unfortunate after so much time, work, expenses, etc. It's something we all have to endure unfortunately over the years. "Crushing" is right. I remember how often Dad and the rest of us went through this for over 40 years. Like the old saying goes "If ya ain't blowing "em, you're not growing 'em". Best of luck rest of season.

We have used toilet bowl wax in the past to seal cracks, splits to keep them going for as long as possible.

Thanks for the kind words. Seems like everyone will go through it at some point. And thanks for the tip - toilet bowl wax sounds interesting
