The 992 Sandercock is giving me a little more excitement with last weeks daily gains being some of the biggest that I have ever had. If it could last for about a month that would be ok with me. The July 19th pollination is late and I will have to play catch up for the entire season. Rocky is ahead of me but this thing is charging hard. I thought it was going to be a high pumpkin when it was young but now it is widening out and its butt is sagging big time. Not sure of a name yet but "Rocky" comes to mind. Locally the Dyberry patch guy lost a good one on his Bayly plant to a blossom split but now also has a late charging monster on one of his favorite New York seeds. Its a long way to the finish line so lets hope mother nature cooperates. Here is a picture of my 992 hitting the 30 day mark today. 104-68-67; There are your numbers Rock.
