The end of a dismal growing season has finally come. A mix of slugs and snails, flooding, cold temperatures and little sun was enough to wipe out all my giant vegetables this year. The 1683 Warner still managed to make it to 1031 lbs, which considering what kind of a year it was here, was not bad. It became a boat after the weigh-off and many people from the public were allowed to paddle their way through part of the Botanical Gardens in it.
The only two giants that made it were the two field pumpkins that I grew on my new sandy plot. The 159 Butler made it to 133.4 lbs and the 140 Crews to 110.2 lbs.
