My AG hasnt shown growth for a week now. 2 weeks until weighoff. I have found mice under the pumpkin. Should I take my chances or have it weighed now? Thank you!

Deal with the mice
Moth balls
Poison
Jack her up a bit and peek
If they haven't chewed deeply into it you can save it
Rotting stops the growth, but
Growth stopping does not mean imminent rot
I'd like to see her. . .how big

I've often wondered if weight doesn't continue to increase with more meat inside even if the girth and volume don't increase. To my knowledge, never been studied.

What seed are you growing it on? Good luck at the weigh offs.
