Keep a close eye on her to make sure that split doesn't go any further. Better 1300 in good shape than a 1350 dmg. Good luck.

Anders, What about if your pumpkin goes a bit more than 8½% heavy and you could gain 1 lb per day more after sunday...? What about when strong weather change causes some small split after sunday? The great difficulty of making desicions....I suppose.
Ofcourse you can make the best decision when to cut, you know best how the growth and condition of the pumpkin is.
Have some officials of the local or regional pumpkinboard at the weigh-off to prove things go well. And you might be registered as European or may be World Champion 2006!!!
It is just, Anders, to think with you in your situation. High tension and exitement, wow. Great job done. We know things soon!?
Again best of Luck, Theo.
