I have three early planted vines with 1 pumpkin each on the main. They were pollinated within a 5 day range. Their ganis were amazing, increasing each day. But then EACH one slowed at day 20. Growth by the tape stopped at day 25. OTT estimates put all three over 200#. Other younger pumpkins doing fine and growing at about the same rate as the older ones were, still pollinating and setting new fruit on youngest plants. Is this normal? Do you think they're done? If not I'm looking for suggestions of anykind.

How far out on the main were they set? Temps up in your area? Fert program in place & still working it?
How do the plants look, nice & green? Did you cover the fruit from day 1? Just things to consider when looking for answers.
