Well treked out in the middle of the FP patch without falling down, lol and measured the biggest FP and got a 191 ott out of her. Not too bad considering there are 4 other large kins on the same vine lol. Just planted them and after I crossed this one in the photo above I got so busy I just let the darn things grow where ever they wanted to. Next year I'll grow this seed and cull the plant properly for competition weight. Standing in the middle of the patch I counted 57 mature Field Pumpkins. what now, lol I'm sold on the condition and sizes of the Howden Biggies. Average size looks like around 50-60 pounds hence the name I guess. I'm going to weigh all of them and get a precise average if that makes sense. 1308 Barenie is really packing on late season weight. I've got an old St. Louis Fairbanks seed scale 8ft x 10ft you drive on to that goes to 28 thousand pounds and registers about 2 pounds off in the floor of my barn..I'll weigh her there for my own satisfaction, I know its not official but we do what we can do, lol. Maybe I can take it to somewhere close buy with a certified scale and hopefully that makes it official but I now theres alot of crazy "Good" rules allowing weights to be recognized and not recognized either way it is good fun.
