Re: Confusion over SE MN Weigh Off Report


Kathie,

Dave grew two pumpkins weighing 1038 and 987.5 pounds from two different 
501.5 Beachy plants. The 987.5 pound pumpkin is listed under exhibition 
pumpkins as a pumpkin grower can have only one pumpkin in the prize 
list. Dave also grew the 871 and 802 pound pumpkins.

Rochester, MN
