Come on German growers we want to know how things turned out in Deutschland.

Martin, Floh, Owen, Pete..... give us the skinny.

Everyone was probably too tired after the long day yesterday
as I certainly was and had the least distance to drive.
Peter Frei took first with about 241 Kilos I believe, his son took second, Martin took third and I took 5th but don't have any more exact info. Owen wasn't there but I don't know why. It just wasn't the same without Owen and Ingo.
Pete or Martin should probably have the info up today but as you probably know there were other smaller weigh-offs in Germany with even larger pumpkins such as Floh's.
Best regards,
Michel

I took a photo of the results table at the weighoff and will try to get it in the correct order and post the full results soon.

As Michel said, I was just too tired after arriving at home around midnight.

I will also post a few pics of the German weighoff in my diary.

Later,

Martin,
I made it home 6 hours earlier but was still kaputt!
I guess it was my nerves and today we are all suffering from bad colds.
I guess it was because summer was so cold and the weigh-off so nice for a total change...
