Howdy!
I was able to update the web page with pictures....if interested, look at the
359 Bhaskaran...has turned into a GREAT looking pumpkin! Looks like a Field
Pumpkin only MUCH bigger!! :-) The picture does not show the "real" orange
color it is. So bear that in mind.

Here are the top 8 pumpkins, not growing much even with all the warm nights
we have had into mid sept!
Position, seed grown, est lbs, lbs gained last week.
#1 1230 Daletas - 923 lbs, up 12lbs
#2 703 N.Bhaskaran - 798 lbs , up 14lbs (My Son's)
#3 430 Bhaskaran - 753 lbs , up 0lbs
#4- 430 Bhaskaran #2 - 717lbs, up 7lbs
#5- 654 Troy - 624lbs Up 9lbs

#7- 1337 Houghton - 561lbs Up 11lbs (My Son's)
#8- 501.5 Beachy - 536lbs Up 10lbs
Note: I was able to harvest a lot of seeds from my 756 lber (U0W) that split
after a 2 week almost 400lb growth period. The seeds are already dried and
packaged...when the season is over I will offer them up for free, with
hopefully
others from above. This was a 1092 Daigle x self cross.
Wishing everyone a great time and personal bests at the weighoffs!
