Let's do the weigh off guess and get a taste of the rumors
Guess the weight of the largest solid GPC weighed pumpkin, without going over, also who do you think will grow it, One guess per person.
Top 3 will win, There will be 3 seeds up for the prizes, and the first place gets his or her choice, then second place and third get's the last.

Seeds are 1010 Daletas, 1231 Pukos, and 500 Northrup,
