Given the trend of the past few years....I'd have to go with "yes".

Off which seed?

As a rule of thumb, it's someone different every year. Top grower from the USA who I think has an excellent shot at is Quinn Werner. My second pick would be Pierre Slusarek from Canada.

I'd like to see the world recocord come from the middle part of the contry or the south:)

Yes the record will be broken. I believe Quinn will do it and the weight will be 1545. Yes there's a reason for me picking 1545! Figure it out LOL

1/13/2007 8:19:02 AM

Ian & Stuart Paton in England UK are ones to watch this year !

1/13/2007 9:11:01 AM

No pressure, Quinn. :)

My guess is it won't be off the 1068.

1/13/2007 10:18:15 AM

And with a bit of good weather, it could be coming from Quebec.

Someone who is very quiet may be back this year and on soil that has been nurtured and pampered for the past three years. He is a dark horse any year he grows. :)))

Captain Cold, the 1009.2 colo record was set in 2000. Here is a link to pictures when Madman and myself were at the patch where it was grown. It will be 7 years this growing season, and I agree the record needs to tumble...We'll see..As Tom B says in his quote..lol

I kindoff think that a couple big ones might be grown in the south this year..maybe not world record breaking but somethings gonna get broke. Only thing I know Im breaking my arse getting ready.

I think its going to be Jerry Rose this year

Ft. Branch, IN ([email protected])

Whoever it is, my guess is it will be grown from their own seed - it has been the trend the last 4 years.

2006 - 1502 Wallace - 1068
2005 - 1469 Checkon - 1354
2004 - 1446 Eaton - 842
2003 - 1385 Daletas - 783

So, how many of you will be growing your own seed stock now?

Well 400 SF yes the record needs to fall. (thanks for the photo, what a nice 1009 pounder.) I look forarwd too seeing you at the weigh off's this fall.

Quinn Werner, you heard it here first. The man has it all together, and will do it with his own seed.

Here is a little fuel for the NW. The Handy's, Hester's, Daletas's, Rivard's, Bortner, Blalock took the year off in 2006. Sherwood had a down year, Larue is due, and the newbie firepower of Leland, Parsons, and Fisher, oh and darest I say Holland, Pugh and Van Kooten. Yes, Yes, beware the NW.

I'll guess the record won't be broken.
I guess the largest pumpkin in 2007 will be grown by Mr. Slusarek, with wt. of 1456 lbs.
