Measured on the 4th September at cc:106, bs:65, ss:66, total OTT = 236, est 286 lbs. I fear it could weigh less though as it has quite a few dips in it.

Measured again today and no change.

End of the season I fear and I dont think I'll be taking it anywhere. A bit of an anti-climax for it to stop so suddenly when I had hopes of hitting 350lbs.

Its an ugly pumpkin and I'll get a picture loaded up soon. Its cold and wet here in the UK and it has not been much of a summer. However, the plant still looks healthy.

What to do with it? Bathroom scales to the plot with a carving knife to get a weight? Seems so harsh.
