Contest Winner!

Our pumpkins are done growing, the one I photographed weeks ago has barely grown, so I went ahead and picked it, as it was the largest. Perhaps because of the chaos going on with getting ready to move, the garden has been mostly neglected (thankfully there’s not much to neglect)…if I could have tended to it more, I think I would have gotten more impressive results.

Our largest pumpkin was 7.4 lbs, making everyone’s guesses too much! But I’m not the corperate type to say no one wins :lol So, I’ll give it to the person closest, which was that chick of http://584blog.blogspot.com/ I’ll email you for you information to get your gift certificate out soon!

Contest: Guess the weight

New posts continue below this post

This is going to run for a few weeks because we won’t pick and weigh the pumpkin until it’s time to decorate it for Halloween.

Comment this post with your guess on the weight of our biggest pumpkin. The guess that is closest to the weight of our biggest problem without going over, will get a gift certificate from Territorial Seed, with a minimum amount of $10. I won’t post the comments with guesses though, until the contest is over! The only hint I can give you is it’ll be over 5 pounds.

Contests and give-aways

I’ve thought about doing a contest for months but can’t seem to come up with anything good. I thought about something with photos – maybe best garden photo involving kids? No, that would leave kidless out (or anyone not willing to put their kids photo on the net)…..Maybe have entrants send me their strangest gardening photos? That might work. Someone give me a better idea?

But then, what to offer as incentive? I thought about food – cookies, bread, jam? Would any of that survive shipping? A magazine subscription? A book? A gift certificate to Territorial Seed? Whatcha think?

And dude! I’ve got 29 readers! Thank you :love
