August started cool with high in upper 70's. 689 McWilliams is picking up speed, gain 58# in past 2 days. Now 289# at day 26. 655 Lovelace has slowed to 15 per day, now 214# at day 26. 910 Young is up to 15# per day, now 144# at day 25. Secondary pumpkin on 1275.5 Carlson-Petersen added 11# per day, noiw 118# at day 24.

We were debating on which pumpkin to keep on the 547 McWilliams: the one on the main or the bigger one on a secondary. The main pumpkin decided for us with a blossom end split. IOt was growing deformed and the one on the sceondary has better shape. It is now 118# at day 26.
