Carl,
very sorry to hear of the Mini Mold Monster DMG. It is an amazing accomplishment in the field pumpkin world. You have set the bar at a new level for all FP growers. Congratulations!!
You were right when you said you were going to put Cape Breton back on the FP map!

Sorry about that Carl. Great achievement, nonetheless. It is interesting though that it is a flat type and not a long type which we would expect. Almost looks like "Gladiator" or something in there.
