Steve Geddes from Boscawen set a new record for growing the largest pumpkin in North America. His ginormous gourd weighed in Thursday night at the Deerfield Fair at 2,528 pounds. The old United States record was 2,360 pounds.

Flax can withstand frost and weathering conditions better than some other crops if plants are maturing and seed moisture is dropping. Flax is most susceptible during flowering and early boll stage and immature green seeds can be killed by temperatures from -2°C to 0°C. After flax reaches the dough stage it is more resistant to frost and bolls maintain the integrity which means it is less susceptible to shelling out compared to canola pods. But, as flax sits out in the conditions and goes through many frost wet/dry events, the seed appearance becomes dull and less desirable to the human consumption market.

Locally owned, chef-driven eateries are elevating the area’s options. And, if next year is anything like this year, you’ll want to resolve to wear your stretchy pants more often. (Who else, for example, is excited for chef Tony Brown’s Eyvind and Hunt, slated to open early 2019?)

A starter of seared tuna ($16) attempts to rope in multiple Asian flavors, creating an eye-catching combination of rambutan, shiso, ginger and daikon that Gauthier can’t quite lasso. It’s a respectable arrangement, but they’re not so much married as cohabiting. Smoked octopus ($16) — served straight-up with lentils, slivered radish, charred lettuce and bright grapefruit for contrast — is a stronger offering.

Noodleholics is affordable and appeals to both adventurous and casual eaters, making it an easy choice any time for anyone. Additionally, portions are generous. Lines can get long during peak hours, so visit at 2 p.m. or 5 p.m. for the swiftest noodle satisfaction. Though they offer takeout, noodle soups are best enjoyed fresh on site.

This year, Geddes squashed the competition. He started with what all competitive growers use – the Dill Atlantic Giant Pumpkin Seed, created after decades of intense selective breeding. But Geddes retired from the juvenile justice system 10 years ago, which has given him the time needed to successfully move from helping children grow to helping pumpkins grow.

Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid that is found in watermelon seeds. The body synthesizes its own arginine from citrulline. Unfortunately for people who are stressed, the sick, athletes and the aged they cannot make sufficient arginine for their bodies needs. Erectile dysfunction can have a number of causes. One of them can be the poor circulation associated with Type 2 diabetes. Arginine found in watermelon seeds can be used by the body to create Nitric Oxide (NO). Nitric Oxide dilates blood vessels and ensures better blood circulation. It is also crucial for sperm motility.

This year the Young’s bragging rights belonged to a particularly tall specimen of long gourd: It broke a New England record at 11 feet.

Sunflowers have two main commercial uses, oil and confectionery (for direct seed consumption). Oil varieties of the flower have small, black, oil-rich seeds with thin hulls, which are pressed to produce an edible, almost tasteless, pale oil, rich in unsaturated fatty acids (especially oleic acid and linoleic acid). The oil is popular for cooking, margarine manufacture and even bio-diesel production. Leftovers from oil extraction are used to make high-protein animal feed. Confectionery types, on the other hand, have large, striped, oil-poor seeds with thick hulls. Both oil and confectionery types are the results of centuries of careful selection and breeding from wild plants.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix all ingredients for either the Smoky Toasted or Spicy-Sweet seeds (except the olive oil and seeds) in a small bowl.

Joanie Smith, owner of East Bay Nature store in Walnut Creek and Dublin, tells me the best way to get rid of live crows is with a dead crow. Joanie carries fake crows in her shop, and her customers swear by them.
