If it continues to grow at 42 pounds a day for 14 more days you should be estimated at about 1809 pounds.I cant help but say with this growth im intrested in a seed from this thing in the fall.Keep it going try and thicken walls to you always want to be safe.

Thanks!

Wow Mike! I hope this one holds together for you. I can just imagine the excitement. I recall picking you and Todd Kline, as the growers who I thought would grow the heaviest pumpkins this year. It was just a guess, but best wishes to you!

Ok this pumpkin should be 1809 if it continues to grow 42 pounds a day for 14 more days. If it continues to grow like this tell August 16th and is not cut from the vine tell the mornign of August 16th it should estimate at 2481 pounds.Keep this thing together.

Thanks!

Wow Mike!

I hope you get a new WR. It would be great to see someone that does such detailed diary's get a new WR. You would shed more light on how you achieved success compared to prior WR's which have always been more in the dark.
