Last year was good for me when it came to pumpkins. I had a ton of gourds and pumpkins. This year I have not planted quite so many, but still have high hopes for getting the one. Last year I not only had a lot of them but, I also had a HUGE pumpkin. 85 lbs. to be exact. It took 3 of us to get it on the bathroom scale. I just had to know how big that thing was. I have never been so proud of something I have grown. I loved it when people would comment about it or ask if I bought it.
Some of the many pumpkin/gourds from last year

The 85 lb.er. I have to say the picture doesn’t do it justice

And… this years plant that will give me a even bigger one (I hope).
I have more plants, but I have a feeling about this one. LOL
