I have a 1233 Checkon pumpkin, 375lbs. at day 45 and growing, a Carlson Long Gourd at 85 inches and growing and a Big Zac at about two pounds and growing. No one will need to cheer, for, my finishes, unless the gourd grows another thirty inches. The Big Zac only needs another five pounds...and so on. ]:o)

Send me an E with your weigh off weight or length guess.

The closest five, of you, will earn a pack, of five dandy growers, in my patch this summer. A sampler pack of broom corn that is over twenty five feet tall. A sampler pack of sunflower seed from one that produced a sixteen inch flower head and was twenty feet tall before it's head bent over. The _____Gipe from the 1233 Checkon crossed with a 944.2 D. Lloyd that went 20% heavy. Finally a couple long gourd seed from one that appears headed, for a place, within a small group, of the longest grown.

You may make your puns here but I will work from the E sent, to me, for the purpose, of playing the game. And hey!
Don't forget, to include your address. You do you lose. :)

Tip: You may assume correctly I am pushing for all I can get in all three cases. It's "Grow or Blow" time.

Our share, of the recent major weather patterns came and went. My soil was moderately wet, so the three inches, of rain should not make a growth spurt, of concern.

The guessing continues. I am enjoying your guesses. Like I said: "Let's have a little fun". All of my plants are getting a light dose of inhanced manure tea each evening. Someone wanted, to know, how I was pushing the "Grow or Blow" time.

Keep those E's moving. I am pleasantly surprised, to get the number, of guesses that have arrived. The competition is intense. It is evident that intellegent guessing is a given fact.

I have one guess, from a ten year old. Guess what? Yep she is a winner, for sure. Funny but also interesting. She said her dad checked me out and that she could write, to me. Good dad too! :)
