Well- the middle of season is end for me (again) A little later than last yr, Its not for a lack of trying though!!!, belive me i put work into patch this yr! & next i may not be able to do it as my 4 yr old is really giving me a run for my money !! I really wanted to bring pumpkin to weighoff ,,They are still growing off secondary a bit, But i think they too will go soon ,maybe 2 weeks or so ! some may make it to 700 lbs one is at 500 one at 600 & 625 & 670 , , What hurts most is ,its not just this yr but every year it seems ,, kind of taking the fun out of it !!!Even if i got pumpkin to only 500 lbs but that was the whole seasons worth of growing that would be cool , but half a season ??? Id be lucky if one out of the 4 did not rot by weighoff time !! I will say for the most part people have been nice to me here on the bigpumpkins with the Exception of the (CTGS&PGA seed auction,because i was late with monies 710$ No-one could be gotten hold of after trying over & over & over to talk to! but finely making arangements to pay by certain time Via the e- mail, still was not able to talk to anyone!! a week before the agreed date they sent letters to every body they could think of to smeer my name,, I dont know why but i still kept my word & sent the 710$ ,, If anyone knew all the details they would know thats BULL****,,, Not the good kind, ) anyways with that said , Good luck to all !!! , & yes i know some of the growers & seed auction ers & they are some of the nicest people iv ever talked too !!!
