Well,
This is my first year growin' pumpkins and I only have one plant.. I only
got a total of 1 (one) pumpkin pollinated, the female flower would open
then go away then a male flower would open up but it was to late.

Im guessing my only pumpkin is only about 30 pounds... but I was at the
Minnesota state fair the other day and I noticed that the 8th place was
only 22 pounds so Im stickin' in maybe I can get a top ten weigh in at the
Nursery!
