Nice to see your hard work paid off in your winning Woodstock and setting a personal best(1885.5). You have helped explain a lot to people on here and in your diary , so it is well deserved.

Thank you to all who have contributed to this post. I am working on diary updates that will include information about the trailer used and also the weigh-off which was a great experience even outside of what my pumpkin weighed.

Everyone's goal should be a Personal Best, because there is only one weigh-off winner but the hardest person to beat is yourself. Actually, the top-3 were all personal bests so congratulations to Norm G. and Matt T.

I also appreciate everyone patience with my diary posting as I hope the long term artifact that is generated is worth the short term delay.

Seeing growers at the weigh-off, posts like this and from what I hear various social media posts by other growers, I can often forget just how many people you can connect with through pumpkins. I am thankful for all of the kind words and glad I am able to give back where I can.
