When I noticed that the big pumpkin was decreasing in growing speed, I decided to let almost all the pumpkins on the plant grow. I wanted to see how much they would weigh altogether. Here you can see me and the pumpkins line-up, except the big one, which I sold at the pumpkin auction that was held after the weigh off at Öland. The biggets one at the pic weighed 200 kg. The weight of all of the pumpkins together (the 313,5 kg pumpkin included) was more than 1000 kg. One reason why I wanted to know the total weight is that a heavy weight indicates that the nutrience in my soil is enough to grow ”a big one”.
