I didn't take pictures today too tired after shoveling pea gravel when it's 9o+ outside My kin went from 153 ott to 194 approx 18 lb gain maybe I should start giving her a little more love if she doing that with just bug spray and water lol.   Monday, July 31 View Page Estimate 249lbs.

So estimate of 442! I'm so excited especially since I have not babied this plant at all i just got back from another week vacation .my weight off isn't untill October if she keeps going I could do really well.   Tuesday, August 15 View Page Here is the plant really happy with this plant has handled our multiple over 100+ degree days really well.   Tuesday, August 15 View Page The stem had to loosen cute some main roots shoulders pushing on the vine.   Friday, October 20 View Page Very sad. She started rotting out of the bottom. No weight off for this one she stopped growing awhile back after our severe heat lasted over a week and had no luck getting any good ones on until too late now I've got at least half dozen.   Friday, October 20 View Page I was very happy with this plant considering I wasn't able to babysit it as much as I should it took our heat weather in stride while my others failed.   Friday, October 20 View Page In the end this plant from 1166 Bryn 1675 Daletas x 1998 Jutras was 45ft x 25ft if I get good seed I will grow next year and perhaps keep more growing for longer so I have at least one for weight off.   Friday, October 20 View Page This is her leaking as you see I didn't get anything underneath her that is most likely why she rotted she was over 200lbs by the time I got back from 10 day vacation had hoped to get another on farther out but didn't happen. Lessons learned.   Saturday, October 21 View Page Leader board for my local pumpkin weight off winner 1081 lbs
