Finland has made a real jump. Last year champion has grown a 1578.5 in a green room out of 1647 Wallace. More results and photolinks when I get back to home later in the afternoon. Amazing to see this size pumpkin live at these latitudes.

Very, very impressive! It was a poor year, weatherwise, this year for Finland and most of northern Europe.

One more time since I cannot delete the previous ones:
1. Hämäläinen/Ovaskainen 1578.5 (716.0 kg), 1647 Wallace x self 2. Juha Ollila (Estonia) 608.9, 1059 Vincent-McGill x self 3. Maija Karvinen 602.7, 922 Young x open 4. Maarit Eerola 523.6 1451 Sundin x 621 Eerola
Howard Dill: Juha Ollila 608.9 Pumpkin 10 entries
Squash: 1. Risto Uotila 322.8 454* Uotila x 585* Andres Squash: 4 entries.
The winner was actually grown in a system of two tunnel type greanhouses connected together by a team of two neighbourgs at an area around 400 square feet.
Seems that we are now ahead of our beloved neigbourgs in Sweden :-) which makes this even sweeter.

Seems that the weigh off manager is converting kilos rounding to the nearest pound down. Anyways we have also a new Estonian record. A huge 2 pound jump. I should participate in the accuracy growing. 2010 605.9 last year 606, this year 608. It is going to take a long time for me reaching 1000 lbs. Lol.
Results are now in CPC site for pumpkins and squash. Keep on watchin the considated results and our champion is #9 at this point of the season. wohoo.
