Here is one of the big Howden Biggies FP. Its way out in the middle of the patch. I've zoomed in on it a little so I can see how the sides have been bulging out on it like an AG,,Crazy, I've never in 30 plus years of growing field pumpkins seen one bulge heavy like this..they usually stay in their form pretty well This particular plant is getting fed the Wellnesse Brand Fast absorbing Calcium+Magnes+Boron+ o-o-50 Potash every 4 days religiously and no others. Nine other FP plants going and no other FP's are bulging out like this dude is. I'm not getting a measurment soon because I'm afraid to go out there from all the thick vining and just knowing I'll either fall from getting caught up in them and breaking a vine and I'm just wanting to see how big of a suprise it will be for me and my daughter when we do finally measure it to see how big she is. Will let the vines die out I guess. Don't know how much water lose I'll have waiting that long. The picture does it no justice, all kidding aside its big. Crossed this one with the 64 Nieuwenhoff. I'm not able to drive the long distance to Homer Glenn as of now so I won't be getting the 1308 Barenie or the field Kins "Officialy" weighed this year...sucks but am happy that I know we beat our PB of 169# on the AG's..I haven't taped the 1308 Barenie lately but am having to sulfer cracks and splits all over it every other day and just seeing it daily I know its pretty darn heavy lol. I know it won't fit between the humps of the wheel wells in the bed of my truck either direction. Would be nice if I knew someone local I could trust driving me truck lol and I may find somebody.... Life is good.
