Pumpkin Poker
In recent years I've grown one giant pumpkin in my garden. @saintvi likes to have a contest for the person who can guess the closest girth and weight when we harvest the ginormous gourd.
2009 was a good year at 80 lbs and bigger around than our 60" tape measure.
2010 was a fake-out. I grew a white pumpkin instead of a giant one.
2011 was not-so-much a giant at 38 lbs and 44" around.
What do you think the pumpkin this year will weigh? If you're the closest, I'm betting @saintvi will mail you a jar of jam.
(This one is growing 2" around each day.)

52 lbs, 46 around.
Holy cow! I've only been gone two days! It was just a little bump when I left!
95 lbs and 75inches around
That's a pretty impressive pumpkin. With the severe drought, very little is growing around us. We've even lost our new foundation plantings in front of our house.
Thanks to share these details it’s truly nice.
