Pumpkin taping out to 725 lbs. As far as I can tell it is still growing on day 87--or maybe it is just flexing. Cantelouping getting worse--oh well, maybe those scabs will help it weigh more. Afterall this isn't a beauty competition is it?
I am itching to cut and weigh it, but right now I am thinking I might be able to drag it out of the yard with a couple of buddies and off to a weigh-off--like on a sheet of plywood or something. Maybe I am getting a bit too optimistic (afterall, there is a month to go) but I might try to keep it on the vine until the North Shore weigh-off. The prospect of going head to head against Lawman (his mom) the NSB gang (and all his kin) is better than the idea of cutting up the pumpkin in my yard and weighing it.
Oh well, where there's a will there's a way eh? Problem is, all the buddies that I have are plagued with back trouble--including me.
Anyone willing to donate money for a crane let me know. There must be a budget for these kinds of things in the North Shore weigh-off treasury fund eh? :0)
