The 1043 Chan pumpkin has always had the rain shelter in place, but during the past few weeks I've been taking the blankets off the pumpkins to let them warm up during the heat of the day, and bring out any more orange colour that might be in there.

Aldor Acres Giant Pumpkin Weighoff is 19 days away on October 11th. Looks like there will be some pretty big pumpkins there again this year...1044 lbs is the Weighoff record held by Chad...that might change this year. Also the Squash record in British Columbia is likely to be broken as someone has a monster greenie they are bringing along to Aldor Acres. There's also Spambie (Scott) another local grower who started with 12 plants...he's got a few monsters lurking in his patch and recently updated his diary...Chad is likley bringing another surprise to weighoff and we'd certainly like to see all the Island growers make the trip over to the Mainland and join us at the Weighoff.
