Nimitz now at 100Kg.
Ross came over yesterday and asked me to measure his pumpkin which he says
is now big.
I havn't been able to do that yet but will see if I can tomorrow and will
report in.

No good news here.......
My 2 hopefulls have stopped growing at 62 inches and I have no idea why.
One has turned orange but the other is still yellow.
I have another that I have ignored and now it is swelling fast.
Maybe I'm not out of the race yet....hear that John...
Maybe Wendy is right with her no touch method.
John Sargy is doing well....And I wish him luck.
Last year I failed and this one isn't to promising. I know how other
growers feel when everything goes wrong.
It is like waiting for Chritmas but then someone cancels it.
You get all hyped up....and then .....nothing......
It is something you go through by yourself.....an inner pain that sets you
back.
And next season you try not to get your hopes up to high.
An emotional roller coaster.....yea...that's pumpkin growing for ya.
Any way the gourds are doing well and the corn is amazing.
