Wow!!
100 degrees here in Boonville Ca. And just can't take the heat
anymore......took a break opened the email and wowsy! Thanks for all the
reading. GOOD TOPIC Andrew, GOOD COMMENTS!.
In the month of Agitation.....either on pins and needles.....or weeping
facing the music.........thank God we got a place to vent or read venters...
All in fun of course.
Personally I take my Hat off to any grower growing in a state where
weigh-offs are non existent YET. True trail blazers. Major applause!!!!
I think a lot of good came from all the comments.......
If you suspect your going to break a record invite the last record holder to
witness if possible---- maybe set a date announce it ..invite other
growers----get a local Ag guy your paying for them might as well use them.
I also think theres a lot of value in a time line only in states and
countries that it works for. Having pumpkins last till a weigh-off is a
nice thing to know about the genetics involved. And if they keep growing
beyond...I want that seed!!!
I think in very very very rare situations world records would extend past
the last public weigh-off as most would want to get that baby in so they
could get some sleep!!!
And if I am not mistaken........Andrew did you not just tip your
cards......is there something really really big in your patch....??.... All
this concern about records.....you be the man...that can....MB
