I bet its grown off the 2009 and grown by a man named Wallace! It was a big jump up to 2300lbs, so I was thinking it could happen this year. Ron Wallace was the first to 1500, 2000, I got to see if he's going to be the first to 2,500!

Weather in New England has been rather disappointing. August has felt like late September and the spring was very cold also. If anyone can do it he can!

richard we dont lie (sandbag) if we had something really special? we would hunker down and keep a low profile ( so we dont put the munson on ourselves-lol)but we never under state when asked.
personally, our goal is to once again be the first to a new milestone (2,500 pounds)anything less and we missed the mark. which is what we will do this year.

O'K, I kind of think somebody will break or come close to 2,500.

I have no inside info but the weather on the west coast has been fabulous. I am not going to predict 2500 but I think the largest Pumpkin this year will come from the west coast. California had the limelight last year so Oregon maybe....

I think it might come from the Midwest Ohio.Michigan.Pennsylvania Wisconsin. There are some monsters out there.
