One small step for man.......one giant step for pumpkin growers. Simply an amazing accomplishment Ron and Dick it is only fitting that you guys should be the first to surpass the 2000 lb barrier after all the hard work you have put in over the years.

I never thought I'd see the day. WOW Congratulations.

9/29/2012 1:23:42 AM

Germany

Congrats! Never thought that this would happen so fast. Maybe I´m the only one, but it amazes me how similar (in size and shape) two pumpkins out of a 1725 seed can be...in the patch of the same grower, whereas other 1725 seeds have produced totally different pumpkins. The secret is the grower, I guess.

9/29/2012 1:44:54 AM

Canada

WOW... Congrats!! I offically give up, I cant even break 1000 lbs LOL, I can recall a few years back when a 1000 lber was the "Goal" and a big kin... Now its just insane how big these monsters can get!! Dave

Congratulations! Fantastic pumpkin!

Enumclaw, Washington

WOW
Congratulations
and my shameless plug, on 8/21 I guessed a 2010 pound pumpkin as well as 2030 and 2075 for the year.
This outlandish guesstimate met with a lot of negativity,
Don't let me down I might get a job as a weather forcaster if this comes true. Per the BP blog the Wallaces have another big one.(this was their cull !!!!!) look out. This should certainly get the media at every weigh-off in the country over the next few weeks. Thank you Wallaces.
