My main kin went down with a BES and I was wondering if I pollinated another one this late in the season how big could it get for carving for Halloween.

Depends on the weather and how healthy the plant is. I pollinated one 3 years ago on August 6th and it made it over 500. Weather in September was awful, too. With good weather and good plant you could probably get 600-700 lbs.

depends on the weather and plant health but 4-500 lbs in 60 days is doable.

I pollinated August 3rd in 2012 and was close to 500 pounds by the time it split at dap 45ish mid September. That was a hot year all the way till the day she split.
