Congrats Theo Kiewiet on a new Dutch squash record of 694 lbs!

I see you beat me theo. Close, but I will admit it. I think I should send you something as a price. Question, do you still like those orange pumpkins as mentioned at the Patch Tour? Then I will send you a seed you could like. It starts with 12 and ends with 33. How about that?

Besides I think I understood the first Dutch sentence.

Let`s have a competition next year again and go for 400.

Brad,
this year I got 312kg, but something went seriously wrong with the irrigation. That will be seriously improved next year, not hoping to immitate you with explosions, lol, 400+ is my goal, 500+ even better: more lol.
If so, I try to organize a Smashing Povery event (for www.ontwikkelingswerktheokiewiet.nl, schools for Africa) by let falling down a big pumpkin from about 20m...
