For all that attempt such cold weather sports, then get enjoyment in summer from their efforts.

O.K. it's Community, both Mick and myself would like to invite folk to grow two plants.
One is a Sunflower, the other is a pumpkin, the prize?
The satisfaction of trying.
Start date, well it doesn't matter, end date, well we throw that open to all we need to be around the time of each plant's maturity, what matters is we measure our plants on the same day and the largest/widest/tallest, is the winner.
Of course as with other years the odd piccy of what your growing how you're growing it, will be welcome, we've had good input over the years.
The Competition isn't just for AccyWebbers, if you know of a childrens group, school, allotment, in fact anyone that may want to join in, let them know they can.
Let's find out how many strange corners of Accrington can sprout life.
Mick and I, are going to attempt with the following:-
Pumpkin = Big Max (cucurbita maxima)
Sunflower = Giant Single (really cheapo multi pack without any extra information).
Good luck to any that can be bothered.
Headaches for Mick and I when rules have to be invented.
