I haven't been able to find the Kasterlee (Belgium) results for pumpkin and squash. Anyone have them? Thanks.

I've been to Kasterlee and the winner was Jos Ghaye with 576.6 kilo, second was 384.1kg and third was 349.5 kg. Jos Ghaye had European record of 588kg when he participated in Duisburg. It's the first time a european pumpkin weighs over 500 kg. If you want some pictures of the pumpkin (inlcuding breeder), just ask (also possible to ask in dutch)

Congrats to all!

Jos, your champion gets slim!
Harry Poels promised me more that his 349kg, but a third posititon is well done.
