Congratulations Steve Daletas for your awesome 1997 lb pumpkin grown off the 2032 Mathison! Also, I would like to commend Steve on bringing a fruit that officially weighed 2059 lbs. Steve DQ'd this fruit before he brought it due to a tiny pin hole in the ribs. The judges didn't even see the hole first time over, however Steve informed them of the defect after they looked it over. A class act by a class guy. We are very proud of our NW champion. Good luck in the next couple weeks!

Congratulations Steve! There have been threads about what makes a HH. Your growing skills, integrity, and willingness to help other growers, makes you a roll model for all growers. So proud to have you as a leader in our pumpkin community!

Congratulations Steve!!!!!

It is sad to see a pumpkin that might have qualified Steve for a trip to NYC get DMG & for the grower to do it himself show's how much integrity the grower has for himself & the hobby.

You are a class act a true role model for all growers to model after. If you want to see what it takes to be true HH follow Steve around my hat is off to Steve thank you!!!!

Steve is a great guy and I have experienced first hand how he will take time out of his day to just say congratulations to another grower. He has been generous with information and also his seeds in the past and present. Back in the day Steve sent me one of his 783 Daletas seeds and my resulting offspring was one of my first entries to a weigh off.

Great job on getting these two amazing pumpkins to the scale (even though one was a dmg).
