Today I weighed my 73 day old pumpkin in san diego. I grew the 1180 daletas seed. We are having a weight guessing contest where it is on display so I can't post the weight, but the fruit was impressive for it's size! Hottest summer in history of san diego hitting 113 degrees even, most of the growing days were over 100. The fruit went 17.8% heavy!!!! wow. Weighed on a certified ground scale with about 20 witnesses. I was a very happy grower, and it was truly impressive for this seed to do this in these kinds of conditions. Pic's coming in my diary and anyone who knows me can email privately for the weight. Thanks so much to Vince and John, my two pumpkin amigos, all there help is greatly appreciated. Jim
