The new, allbeit unoficial, UK Record Pumpkin now stands at 1048 Lbs. This is the first Pumpkin ever to reach and exceed the magical 1000 Lbs barrier in the UK. Big Congratulations to Alun for taking us into the realms of the 1000 Lb'er. Alun's 1048 was grown on the Wallace 1068, just another 20 Lbs and she would have been momas weight.
More info on Alun's 1048 to come soon.
Regards Mike
