Now the 211 Boyette was a melon I found on July 2nd, the day I was leaving on vacation. I returned on July 8th and did a OTT measuremnet, which put he melon at 60lbs. I culled the other melon and got this one on foam and shaded it. Now I'm am completely guessing that July 8 was day 20 so now I'm day 44.
Over the last 24 days it has gained over 4lbs/day, and the funny thing is 3 of those days it was over a 100 degrees and the melon put on only 2 lbs a day when over a 100.
Day 44 measurements ee-37 ss-54.5 cc-85 Ott-176
I just want nothing else to do with squash bugs this year, and hope I can get at least one to mature.
