Since I am updating the status of my 150 plant I might as well give you a sneak peak of this beautiful specimen. Just a beast of a plant at about 1,000 sqft right now. The fruit had its 30 day birthday today July 4 and is sitting at about 500 lbs.......

150 Fruit :)-]-{ This Beauty is set & growing on my 150 plant, on July 22nd. She is sitting at about 800 lbs! It is pretty darn amazing that these plants are powerful enough to produce such a large fruit in such a small area, in such a short period if time.

Going back a couple years when I grew my 2,405 pounder someone asked me "Well, you gonna grow a bigger one next year?" I remember telling him I have no doubt that I can grow a bigger pumpkin, but for it to be this big, deep orange, great shape and just overall an absolutely beautiful specimen. The odds of that happening would be like lighting striking twice in the same place..... Well here I am on August 15th a couple years later and I have an absolutely beautiful specimen sitting at about 2k right now. She is an absolute Bute! If this girl can hang on for the long run I just might be sipping fine wine in California with Travis at the end September......

150 plant - Fruit Entry: Holy Moly.... This Girl just keeps getting bigger and prettier every day! She is taping over 1,200 pounds right now with tons of season left to grow... I will be honest, I did not really expect this much out of this tiny plant but this girl just keeps gaining. No signs of her slowing at all so this could get really interesting in the next few weeks! As for Ghost-Kin she is still gobbling up all those carbohydrates that plant will give her. Her weight gains are down but don't tell her that. She got a butt on her as big as a bulldozer. She just might be lurking in the patch waiting for the right moment to pounce......
