Relatives sent clipping from 10/8 Jackson, Ms Clarion-Ledger regarding new Ms record melon (239.5#) grown by a familiar name on these boards. I'd post a link, but ain't got that far into this computer thang yet. Congrats, wv melonman

Thanks, The seed I think is a 240 bowers 1st cousin to the 268.8 Bright. IT was raining at pumpkin daze so not sure if they got the stats. Last time I checked the ott was 208.5 three days before I pulled it. The melon was still growing 1 pound a day. 38 long x 62 3/4 round.

IT was a 240 bowers seed offspring of the 148 bowers that produced the 157 Bright
