As a Grower competing in the Master Gardner. I am becoming frustrated with the lack of data entry for the smaller fruit. Several of this weigh off sites are some of the best in the world, But fail to document the proper information of the seed mother. pollinator and OTT of the entrees at their sites.

Agreed. "Soon" growers will be able to edit their own information right here on BigPumpkins.com.

This isn't really the fault of the sites but the growers who do not provide the info to the sites. Many growers just don't take time to document the info during the season and usually can't remember when it comes time to fill out the entry form for the weigh off. It would be great if growers could edit/add to the info they provide.

Good to hear Ken. I know I for one am guilty relying on 'memory' at the weigh-off and it's failed me several times now and it's getting worse with age and with each additional child...lol:)...and sorry:(.

Hope to have my data problems fixed soon.

It has been in the works for a very long time. Currently, I am very busy trying to get all the weigh-offs setup. Once that is done, focus will switch.

Also, a new version of the iOS app will be released to Apple this week for review. It will include weigh-off results and lots of updates.

That would be great. Also there is a 1,362.50 pumpkin listed as 1st on the watermelon data !

Thanks. I will let the person responsible for the Italy weigh-off know of his error.
