Last year Jeff grew the state record for giant pumpkins in Illinois. This year he did it again! In fact he won 1st and 3rd!!! (1156 lbs & 1097 lbs, for a total of 2253 lbs worth of pumpkin pie!) His tomatoes were pretty impressive too.
Last year Jeff came close to growing the state record for giant pumpkins in Illinois. This year he did more than come close! Congratulations Jeff!
Jeff didn’t tell us all his secrets but he did share one tip (works well for GIANT Watermelons too!)
Hi, I grow giant pumpkins and grew this pumpkin shown in the attached picture. It will be officially weighed on Oct. 3rd. [weighed in at 1173lbs] I am happy to say I believe your product [Charcoal Green® BIOCHAR PLUS] helped play an important part in helping me to achieve a bigger pumpkin this year.
A friend decided to try the Charcoal Green® Potting Mix with his spring bedding plants after seeing how it helped grow record Giant Pumpkins. For comparison he also planted some flowers in the leading national brand of potting mix. Here are a few backyard pictures he sent us.
