How's the Southern folks doing? I've read a few diaries but post your progress here. Weather has been good, folks are doing well as I can see. I know a few folks that don't visit BP.com that have 300# or better going.
I have a 335# 307 Little pumpkin, 275# 547 Armstrong pumpkin, and a 330# 797 Handy pumpkin going.

Kyle, the 339 Little is 357lbs @ day 40, the 307 Little is 205 lbs @day 25. The 699 Schroeder is 162lbs @ day 24.I have a 250 Schroeder that is about beach ball size @ day 11.The 250 is on a secondary the main got burned by the sun I think. The 699 is on a secondary also the main split and rotted . I have 2 plants with stump rot they have small fruit ,but they were planted late. One was another 339 and another 307. The 339 "basil crowns" seemed to grow so fast they would split length wise the first plants heeled over ,but the last 2 are rotting . I am not going to care for them as well as the others from here on out. The 339 has a small fruit on the rear main do you think it would take anything away from the big one if I let it keep growing?

have 2 going right now, they just kicked into gear, have not taken measurements, but they are around 50 pounds each, and picking up speed. In fact it is amazing to see how much they grow in one day. Must have been the military aircraft, and what ever the strange spray was coming from them.
