I was wondering (and probaly some others are too)where I (we) stand in comparison to other growers. Days since pollination, OTT and estimate weight and any basic information on the pumpkins. I think it would kinda be cool to see it in a message thread. I can understand some growers may be keeping things quiet due to circumstances that they want to surprise others with at the end of the season but I still think it would be fun.
