I weighed it today on 2 certified scales and they both came up with 49 pounds.It was 127 ott which it would be 50 pounds on the pumpkin book So I can figure these out now. My personal best now on the muskmelon.Its mother was a 35 pounder from last years and its mother was the 64 Robb world record. I was very happy with it and can not wait till next year. Should be lots of seeds. It is at the store on display for 2 days.
