2012 TEG Giant Pumpkin Contest - weigh in by 15 October

[ducks4you]

I had pumpkins (plural) in July. Then the squash bugs got 'em.

Aldi is selling big pumpkins for $2.29, so we'll still have punch 'n pie.

Nice job, Emsevers! Can't wait to see who wins.

My largest pumpkin is 23 lbs. but still dark green. The small one is 9 lbs. My earlier ones were 12 and 14 lbs, I think

Awesome job, CatJac. Looks like some chickens might have gotten to your pumpkin?

Anyone else want to weigh in? We've got a few more hours left til the end of the contest!

No just handling scratches I think.

Well here's what I had for results... and I'll give 24 hours for a retraction if I messed up... point me to your post number if I did. There are a lot of people who haven't posted their pumpkin weight. The contest has closed, but please give us an update on your pumpkin when you get a chance.

I do have a pic of my pumpkin "collection". If we combined them all, I doubt they would weigh 80 pounds! Nice job! My volunteers did turn out kind of cute, as soon as I have a moments peace, I will post it...

 

[Emsevers]

That was a little to easy. Where was everyone? There's a whole bunch of people that didn't post anything. It doesn't really feel like I won anything. I don't want that to sound rude at all because I know many of you had bad luck and couldn't help it. I think I had a good dose of beginners luck. What happened to everyone else?

Well Emsevers, if you saw my tiny yard you would know I can't grow pumpkins here.
