noah was a great pumpkin and i had a blast watching it grow this year. i knew it would go light based on cutting it from the vine 3 weeks early due to severe stem problems that i feared would make its way into the pumpkin. my guess before it hit the scale was 735 pounds eventhough it was estimated at 780. it was ranked visually as the 6th biggest before hitting the scales, and greg the MC said over the intercom that i was being prety modest with my guess on the weight, but when it hit the scale, i knew the stem problems that showed after day 55 may have shut down the wall thickness growth more than i thought. so the final weight for noah was 693 pounds. tre', which was 23" ott smaller than noah was right to the charts and gave noah a run for the money for heaviest pumpkin this year in my patch, weighing in at an even 650 lbs. here is noah at the weigh off...one thing i forgot to do was wash off the stem area from the daconil and captan.
