Different angle.
Day 41 measurements: CC: 116.25" SS: 68" EE: 72.25" OTT 256.5" for an estimated weight of 363 lbs. A new PB! The daily gains took an unexpetedly big dip, about 8 1/4 lbs a day this last week, but I think that probably had to do with the fact that every day since I last measured went over 90, with a couple of days making it to 95. I hope it was just the heat and that the cooler, better temperatures this coming week will bring those daily gains back up a little.
After getting my first daily gains estimate on 8/1 I set up a series of benchmarks my pumpkin would have to make in order to reach my goal of 704 if the fruit were to go 25% heavy. Heres what I came up with:
D34: 300 - Actual: 305
D41: 360 - Actual: 363
D48: 415
D55: 453
D62: 485
D69: 510
D76: 531
D83: 548
D89: 560 x 1.25 = 700 so just a wee bit over 25% heavy would be needed. My first two guesses were almost dead on. I hope I'm right about the % heavy, lol.
