My biggest AG is now at 54"CC day 27 and is 134 OTT (61 lbs). Other AG is bigger for its age, but both are only doing about an inch in circ. per day. It's been really wet, over 3" rain the past few days and powdery mildew is making it's appearance in the patch. Sprayed fungicide last night. One thing I notice from other diaries/pics is my AG's won't be 1000 pounders, not enough plant to support that kinda growth. I'm still shooting for 2-300 though. Maybe????

The Prizewinner pumpkins have shown vigorous growth the past few weeks and I have several pumpkins set. Some are growing very rapidly. Terminated most secondaries (got to get them buried) because they're reaching the limits of the patch.
