Ian,

I met you I think about 10 years ago once when you were in the Netherlands and you told me the goal was to grow a world record one day. And back then you guy's were still pretty new to it with lots left to learn . Your current diary is amazing and I know when every time when I,m about to read it, I will be blown away by mind boggling gains and plants and fruit that look so fresh on day 45/50 dap they make our plants look old on day 2 dap.
You guys have a set up and plants that I think without a doubt come the closest to what ideal growing conditions and ideal looking plants are.
Without trying to jinx it, I hope this is the year you guys end up and top. It would be well deserved and no surprise at all. Good luck!!

At the present growth rate, it could hit 2000# by August 1. With 2 months to grow after that, could it be the first 3000# pumpkin? Lots of people are rooting for you.

That's what I'm doing wrong! I thought it was a circle pattern.. Always awesome to watch top notch growers maximize the growth potential of the pumpkins and plants.
