    Congratulations on your 550 pound monster! We did a local pumpkin drive and received approximately 150 donated jack-o'-lanterns after Halloween. The biggest one was 125 pounds! Half of them are going to feed my worm bins and compost piles and half went to a local chicken farm. As you said, it's the circle of life!

    Congratulations. Nice job. Good of you to lend the giant to the school. With all those seeds, you should have quite a pumpkin patch next year.

    This is very cool. Question: Where do you get all those coffee grounds?

    • @ryanhoelke
      @ryanhoelke  Год назад +1

      I get them from a local coffee shop. If you stop and ask your local coffee place, they are probably happy for people to take them away. Usually, you can rotate pails for transport. Now I just leave a small trailer there and pick it up every couple of months when full.

    What do you do with the compost?

    • @ryanhoelke
      @ryanhoelke  Год назад +2

      Grow pumpkins in it 😆. Seriously though, I will start adding it to the garden as an additive and till in. It's also great for top dressing lawns and as an amendment when planting flowers and shrubs in the spring.

    I'm sure you could've converted more giant pumpkins out of the same compost pile! Too bad you didn't eat it. Lots of pumpkin soup opportunities recomposted away!
    Nevertheless, GGWP with your respectable experiment!
