Just to let you know we took 1st and 2nd again at the Iowa State fair. The first place melon weighed in at 168.5 pound breaking my personal best by 1/2 pound.The second place melon weighed 126.6 pounds.There were 9 watermelon entered. I also won the jumbo muskmelon division.It was a very hot day but loads of fun.

Nice. I put a melon in local county fair once, and the person that watched over the exhibit said it was most thumped melon in Minnesota.
Here's to you Marty, and your thumping good melon.

Hey Seedy One, if you have a few seeds available from your 168.5, I'd be interested in giving the Giant Watermelons a try out here in California. Please e-mail me- Thanks Joe
