I lied; the most exciting day in the patch officially occured today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ESTIMATE = 1603 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't for the LIFE of me imagine a pumpkin that big. Can you please explain what you do to get the pumpkin to grow like that? And, pictures, please :)!!!!! Hope it just keeps on growin'!
There are whole books on "how to" get them big so I can't even give you the start of it! LOL. Building up the soil in the off-season, picking seeds with good genetics, lots and lots of weeding, pruning vines, burying vines, lots of water, and most importantly it takes PATIENCE!! Such a long season to worry about everything that can go wrong!!
I'm gonna have to start checking your blog more often as Canfield draws near! Wowser!!! That's more than I weighed when I started the South Beach diet!!
omg I was just stumbling on my computer!!! LOOK what I came across! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/6267287/Ohio-teacher-sets-world-record-with-1725-pound-giant-pumpkin.html
