In your opinion, what would be the size difference of a fruit from a burried vine vs a fruit from a non-burried vine? I'm trying to convince some of my fellow growers to bury their vines but they don't believe it would make much of a difference.

Two years ago I never buried and had an est. 525. Last year The only thing different I did was bury and control vines better and grew a 682. Same plot, same fertilizers (or lack there of) and similar genetic potential seeds.

Bury all vines along with Myco and you will see amazing results in your pumpkin weight.
