I want to thank Tom for giving me a chance years ago to grow his 471*, it was a winner then, and still is, the difference between a greenhouse here and without one is easy to see.

I am having a very good year. Compared to my PB of 895 lbs in 2006, I had the following estimate: September 8th, 2006 - 343.5 ott, estimated 851 lbs. As of August 22nd 2010, I have the following estimates: 1207 - OTT 334" EST 783 lbs (thumps like a rock, my guess is at least 15% heavy probably more) 1309 - OTT 343" EST 847 lbs

There are 2 things that I have dreamed about since 2002. 1- The first time I measure a pumpkin that estimates over 1000 lbs. 2- The first time one of my pumkins weighs over 1000 pounds. The first dream is finally reality: 1309 - 177/98/97 OTT 372" EST 1078 lbs I feel like Rocky after the fight shouting for Adrian. I don't even care if it weighs over 1000, it measures over, and for me that is enough. I might leave it in the patch. To all of you 8th year newbies (I am one) never give up it can happen, and 1000 for us is like a new world record for others. This is so cool. God bless the AG world, owen has finally got his first 1000 EST!
