835 lbs is my biggest, I think I will beat that this year. Next W/E will be when it happens.

Well done It's not been so good at work this year we'll be lucky if we get 50, last year we harvested 1000. Great British weather

Growing Giants isn't always easy and some times things do not go to plan, my biggest this year ( weight unknown ) sits outside my house after I dropped and split it when lifting it. The other two took part in the Windsor Pumpkin Race https://www.worldsbiggestpumpkins.com/index.htm Last year my 835 lb pumpkin came second .
