That was an awesome 5 page article about Giant Pumpkins and the Ohio Growers in the October issue of Smithsonean Magazine. And very nice of Quin Werner and Tim Parks, to share some great growing tips. I always heard Quins patch looked perfect. With that picture... Seeing is believing.

That Stelts patch is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Kudos to Quinn as well. Quinn is one of those perennial nice guys within the hobby.

What a wonderful article! Lots of interesting history, great photos, and much deserved recognition of the Ohio Valley guys and others too.
