Big Max Pumpkin
« on: August 19, 2009, 15:28 »
Cut the 'giant' Pumpkin yesterday as it had changed colour and the skin had hardened.

Picture on the seed packet shows it as a yellow variety but after research, orange is the norm.

Weighed it.  78 pounds.

Now the winner last year at the veg show was 50 ish so I have a chance.

Pleased with my first effort and there's another one going for it still!!

Good luck with the comp!
