    Sorry to hear you'll not be around Steve.

    I'm waiting to see how big yours gets before showing my hand.:)

    Is the finish date still the end of October?

    Or has this now gone down the pan?

        No its still going, we are just a little bit derailed though.

        Not letting Steve get away with pulling out, he started it, I didn't want to enter on account of space so he sent me some seeds knowing I wouldn't be able to resist planting them.

        Well its been going a while, and we have put some effort in. My pumpkin stopped growing a long time ago, I kind of lost interest and stopped feeding and watering in August.

        Its rock solid now, I use it as a seat sometimes.

        Its in a sunny spot you see.:loll:

            Think it'll be irrelevant when you weigh yours in Pete.

            Oh well, we will see.

            What you got hidden in that field of yours Ziggy?

            You never did do the OTT measurement, did you?
