Hey Adam, I’m curious what your thoughts were about adding beer to their diet? Did you notice any change in the foliage after? Fun video…thanks, Deb

Hi Deb, honestly I don't think it changed anything that much. I had read somewhere that certain vegetables didn't mind a beer so I thought it would be an interesting experiment. It certainly didn't affect their foliage, they continued to grow as normal, the only thing it did prove was that beer doesn't kill them

Had to stop the beer my pumpkins kept beating my wife

Never use Stella, it tends to have that effect

Hi Adam, I always enjoy your growing guides, I imagine there must be quite a bit of film to edit in order to achieve the finished video. Whether the beer does much to the pumpkins weight gain I don't know, but fairly certain Jacks Magic plays a large part! Two very acceptable pumpkins for sure.

Hi Robert, the editing process for a video like this is done throughout the year as each clip is filmed and then joined onto the previous one. Jacks Magic and beer certainly went hand in hand to help swell those pumpkins. Hopefully I'll grow a bigger one next year.

Well done Adam! Hope you bought the cheapest beer 🍻 or else it could turn out to be a bit expensive 😄😆😂

Brilliant... I know EXACTLY the film you are referencing one of my favorite westerns. "Blondie, you know what you are,,, just a dirty sonofabi,..."

Beautiful pumpkins, good job. I guess 70lbs. 🤷🏻‍♀️I’m probably over but they look pretty solid to me.

I'll guess 50lbs each. No idea how far out that'll be as I've never grown a pumpkin. TBH I'd rather have 20 little pumpkins than one big one as I like eating them roasted but I couldn't eat one that size :D

Good guess Snafu. These pumpkins were grown just for their size this year as I wanted to try and beat a previous weight of 86 pounds. Next year I'm gonna grow another big pumpkin and some different eating pumpkins

Can you tell me what the prize is please if I guess right?
