Re: 1213.7 lbs? We will see...

True name -  Squmpkin

Have done a lot of research on this - no definate answer from new-oldgrowers other than
what they personally want which is prejudice. Sorry Paul, but I believe the grid is the first
(long way from perfect) step in resolving this argument. Really the squmpkin is neither a pumpkin
or a squash, its a breeding that pumpkin growers are using to get heavier weigh from in order to
win competitions, the orange growers don't stand a chance, the squash growers have some
ethics & will not reconize them as squash.Question in all the new growers mind's. WHAT NOW.
