i think Spence is using 1 lb size.
most seem to use the 10 or 20 lb size from what i have seen at the weighoffs !
Frank uses the 50 lb size. but this is not recomended for the average grower. Takes years of practice to use that size.

I don't think Spence is using sand. More like crack.

It was a beauty too Lloyd! We took our 238 Holloway melon and it weighed 187 lbs. I think Jerry is planning on taking that melon to Cullman next weekend. So that is one big melon that we know will be there!
