Re: interpretation of the pumpkin weigh-Off rules


Steve, 
   You can do anything you  think is necessary to patch or repair a crack etc 
during the growing season. Some use fungicide treatments grafting wax 
silicone rubber etc. However, before the weighoff, all foreign sustances must be 
removed. No additives of any sort are allowed....just pumpkin. If the crack or 
hole exposes the internal cavity, you are disqualified. Pumpkins with large soft 
spots, pumpkins leaking or on the verge of collapse are also disqualified.
