Dave Chan has known Mama was a special pumpkin since she began growing in his Richmond backyard in June.
And he was right — at a whopping 1,003 kilograms, Mama came first place at one of the world’s biggest pumpkin weighing competitions in Sacramento, Cali.
The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino’s Sacramento national pumpkin weigh-off offers $9 a pound for the competition’s winner.
This includes monitoring their temperature and humidity and pumping carbon dioxide into the 2,000 square foot greenhouse he built in his backyard — which he notes is larger than his house.
He addressed a letter to “Howard Dill, Nova Scotia” inquiring about pumpkin growing and received a response and some seeds a week later.
Chan enjoys helping other people grow their biggest pumpkins, and plans to give away most of the seeds that are extracted from Mama this year.
