Congrats to Captain 97 with a 814.5 # entry for the 150 sq. ft. contest. It won the Howard Dill award too !!

Not sure if there are anymore out there to be weighed, but I believe he is the leader.

Thanks everyone!
The contest was a lot of fun. And I enjoyed keeping tabs on everyone elses entries throughout the year. Its definitely a fun challenge to see just how much plant you can jam into a small space.

Here was my vine pattern if anyone is interested.

Matt, I was pretty worried when you showed me that picture of the baby pumpkin and asked if it looked normal or not lol. I am glad it worked out for you! Congrats on an awesome season!

Ha Ha Yeah Jim it sure was an ugly duckling at the start. Another good year for the 811 with three more Howard Dill Awards. Thanks for letting me give it a go!

Hey Matt! I got a couple votes out of sympathy, With the orange "Peanut". Your pumpkin was outstanding, prettier than the rest. In a class by itself. My dad was talking about it yesterday. He was saying to me anyone would be proud to have that in there garden. Nice Job!
