Re: what is a pumpkin worth ?
I would assume that the larger it is the more it is worth. I know
there are recommendations in Dan's book so I wont give them away but you
also should just go by what someone will pay. Usually they a store wants to
make 2x what they pay, so a raffle would make them 1000 dollors maybe. I
was also talking to another grower who is loaning them his pumpkin that he
will get back after halloween.
