An incredible size for its age? Any predictions on how big this thing could get? Anyone had any similar measures that went on to be big without splitting? It has been an incredible plant from day one, good genetics too! (846 Calai x 966 Holland) Fruit is crossed with 805 Pukos pollen! Hope it's not growing too fast.... More details in my diary.... Ben

My 950.4 and 697.3 were both only 42" circ on day 14! Could be a good one...

No Place Special

My 1125 off the 869.5 was 46.5 on day 13. End result was only 1125 thanks to the mouse but think that it would have come close to 1300 lbs! Hold on bud you may be in for a real monster!

Ben could find a pregnant kangaroo taking care of his Holland pumpkin and Mike is talking about his Iowa mouse..)

In Australia, this winter, it will get heavy for sure...!

Ben,
Awesome numbers, I had some do that this year in the genetics field. At least for a while. It was hard explaining in chat how I had field pumpkins growing faster than the competition ones...LOL

Watch that pumpkin carefully for signs of splitting! Watch carefully for any signs of stress. Go for the Australian record!

As every winter, Ben, you hold on our expectations. Our hopes are with you. Get the new WR at least!
By the way, I didn't take measurement at day 14, but at 20, my 1036 was 79" circ. Good moment to compare with.
