Hi all, this year I'm going to use Etaphon on a pumpkin. I'm curious if anyone has used it and what the results were and if the pumpkin was heavier than the chart? Any comments on its application are also welcome.

I had not heard of it before, but a google search says it breaks down into ethene, which means it will speed up ripening, and that's apparently what it's used for.
Personally I don't think you do want to speed up ripening, if anything you want the opposite ie to delay ripening so it has more time to grow!
