Re: Explosive Fruit


Sorry to hear that Steve.  How did you determine that the stem rotted all the 
way into the fruit prior to the BIG explosion?  Wish I could have seen the 
explosion.  I plan on using a chainsaw and laughing like a mad woman the whole 
time.

Subject: Explosive Fruit

I had a real nice fruit succumb to stem rot last week. Neither Daconil,
Captan or Borax could save it.

We gave her a proper funeral by proceeding to blow the smithereens out of
her. It is an amazing sight to see a 600lb plus pumpkin disappear before
your very eyes. No cleanup necessary!

I will have a couple for Indiana weigh-offs this Sunday. We are too busy to
make it to Illinois.

Good luck all!
