My pumpkin is around 577 lbs at day 41. It is still growing at around 16 lbs a day. Plant is healthy. Is there a good chance I can still make 1000lbs?

Here's a benchmark for 1200 lbs:

Here's the OTT chart:

According to the OTT chart your OTT is around 301 and according to the 1200 lb benchmark you should have an OTT of around 312 on day 40. So I'd say you're on your way to over 1000 lbs.

However, I've been told not to read into the numbers too much. It's more important to keep the plant healthy and have steady growth.
