How exciting, congratulations. Baby pumpkins are so cute.

All silent babies are cute
I will put her on a platform off the soil and research whether to pinch out that stalk. I think her name will be Pipette.

I've harvested Pipette, am I the last one standing?

I failed, yet again, to grow any tromba .........in fact, any squash at all. Maybe next year.

A fine looking pumpkin. Pipette’s not a bad size at all. You should be very pleased with yourself.

I had very little to do with it. Apart from sowing and planting her it was all her own work. I may have interfered a bit by spraying her with dilute weedkiller, but she shrugged that off and gave us a fine baby.
