Holy crap! This reminds me of the TLC shows with the morbidly overweight people with their bodies pouring over the sides of their beds. Your idea for a TV show is interesting. I would watch.

I LOVE giant pumpkins. Have you seen the documentary on giant pumpkin growers on PBS? It is so weird and fun, one day I hope to have space to try to grow one of these guys.

ya, the pumpkins are nuts… to get them in the truck they usually grow them on a pallet and then can take them on a forklift once mature. Or they have straps and they lift them up.
yes you can grow one of these in your backyard… as long as you have the room and lots of fertilize and water. they take a lot of care everyday during the growing season… email if you need a source for HMB giant pumpkin seeds.

Every time I hear Half Moon Bay I think of the one in Kuwait. While there in 1990 it was all the rage to go to Half Moon Bay. I never went but got the t-shirt. Doesn’t really count though. I wonder if it is similar to yours? The one in Kuwait was a resort like place.

I was wondering how they got the pumpkins off the truck but you showed it. Now I’m wondering how they would get the pumpkins on the truck? Tractor maybe. They are huge! Oh to be able to grow something like that in my garden would be so cool! I love these things and bet you had a great time of it.

Woah! What is the secret to oversized pumpkins such as these? Is it the variety of seed they plant or the fertilizer they are fed?
