This is the Barron 2144. I'm growing it on a "Gienger ramp" where the main vine is grown on ramp leading up to the pumpkin and the secondaries are growing down the sides of the ramp. Hopefully we can remove some soil under the pumpkin as she grows leaving the main and secondaries high enough so that they will not be disturbed as the pumpkin gets larger. I think , hopefully, that it will serve 2 purposes. Not disturbing mains and secondaries as the pumpkin gets bigger. And, 2, we will have every root available for maximum growth. You can't see it but there are roots growing into the ramp from the node that the pumpkin was started from.
