1544 Day 43 on Aug. 7th

143-84-79= 306 ott, est= 606 lbs.

Day 30 to 40 ten day avg = 19.4 lbs a day.
Total growth for the ten days 194 lbs.

Note: The stem is in pretty good condition 14 days after the split and surgery. The stem is dry I have been brushing out the old captan and reapplying every few days. Nice sunny weather the past few days I have had the tarp pulled back letting the sun bake that stem dry as well. The pumpkin has been stretch marking since about day 30 and it has covered about most of the fruit.
