I was most amazed with the giant tomato record being broke, had been the wr for a long time. How about you? Manure prices?😃

There's an untapped and unlimited supply of bullshit in "other non pumpkin related" right now. I even donated a bit.

Tomato WR and all the other records that were broken this year.

As far as all that bullshit . . .

Beni's three over the 2032. 20 some fruit over 1800. 50 some over 1700. No bullshit unless its well composted :)

Dan's tomato, Beni's amazing year and Darren smashing his personal best by 500 pounds!

The fact that a boy, whom I didn't know and had never spoken with, emailed me and we exchanged ideas and thoughts and that I feel is a friend now, ended up growing the WR. What an accomplishment! Wow, Dan! What a blessing!

Dan MacCoy breaking the tomato world record and Beni Meier's three world records in a row. Neither grower has gotten the recognition they deserve in my opinion.

What a year! How could you pick just one?
Record after record smashed -- many more than once. Personal Bests by many
Weigh off Records
County Records
State Records
Country records
Continent Records
World Records!

I wonder if anyone kept track, I didn't, but it was a tremendous amount.

Only place to go from here is UP!!!

What are you guys paying for manure and compost? Still cheap in my area, but I can see a market rise for both coming.

Mid to upper 20's a yard here, Ryan
