Pictured is complete cessation of soft /wrinkled tip using a 'nutrient bath solution' developed by gvgo members. We ask only for the same consideration given to most other other giant fruits and vegetables. The request in short,.... Can a 'healed' gourd be accepted for competition, regardless of where the 'soft spot' was previously?

And you did a great job in explaining and clarifying Todd. Your replies and insight are much appreciated. Looking forward to seeing you all in Port Elgin😊.
