has devised a "squash estimating chart" we could all use. Alternatively,
perhaps there is an adjustment factor that might be multiplied by the
pumpkin chart to arrive at a squash weight estimate.

I much prefer to be pleasantly surprised when my fruit go 15% over the
charts.....its worth every penny and every minute i put in to watch the faces
drop on the growers of the bigger orange pumpkins when my LITTLE squash
beats thiers......G
