Hi Dan....yes...Jim Ives grew a couple 300+ lbers on his 977 that were
squash last year. There are a couple others i heard about but the names/sizes
don't come to mind.Nothing big as I recall,but thats not unusual as people
expecting pumpkins and getting squash usually neglect the plant at first site
of green.Last to get fertilizer,ran out and didn't wanna mix up more borer
juice,tired of weeding etc...... not a true comparison in weights with
pumpkins .(then they'll roast up the 500lb squash seeds for a snack and save
the 220lb pumpkin seeds !! Go figure !)...GlennA
