Minot pumpkin estimated at more than 1,600 pounds

The pumpkin is scheduled to be removed from its life-giving vines Oct. 1 and placed on display at Berry Acres on Oct. 2. Terry Hunter, owner of the Green Thumb greenhouse, fully endorsed the effort by Gates and Berry to attempt to grow the massive pumpkin. The process resulted in a lot of learning and created a desire to make attempts at growing even larger pumpkins in the future, he said. Gates says the current state-record pumpkin weighed in at a whopping 1,280 pounds.
