1544 Looking like a beauty Queen....

This one really surprised be it is 23 days old td and is starting to orange up already, I really did not expect this much orange out of this one. I grew it for the size genetics with a chance of going orange and it looks like I have the orange coming now I just need the size. This fruit is growing very well for me right now and is starting to ramp up daily gains.
Day 20: 74-50.5-49=173.5 ott Est: 121lbs
Day 23: 89-58-56=203 ott est: 187lbs

three day gain of 66lbs 3 day avg. is 22lbs a day.

Note: I fertilized for the first time since a bout a week before pollination this past friday. I did a soil drench of Fish/seaweed/humic acid/molasses. 3 gallons around the stump area.

I plan doing a foliar fert this evening.
