Here's this morning's picture of Plump Penny. Sorry it's a little out of focus, hard to hold tape and camera at same time. Her measurements are 33-36-52.5, or 121.5 OTT at 13 DAP. That charts her at 44#, up from 37 yesterday. I need to spray for grasshoppers, but I'm out of Triazicide. Hubby will bring some home shortly, then I'll spray those things to death. I have several others coming on, but none quite matches this first one. the second place is my #5; she measured 82.5 OTT at 10 DAP.

And #6 was 70 OTT at 8 DAP. I know. I know. Don't measure till day 10! There are 14 pumpkins altogether growing in my patch right now. There are a few coming on still, and if they don't interfere with my big ones, I'm just gonna let them go and see what happens.

I'm planning for next years pumpkin patch already.
