Todays numbers: Aug. 16th 648 Young - day 40, 280 ott, 467 pounds, 16 pounds a day last 5 days. This is my best shaped fruit.
696 Holder - day 40, 296 ott,550 lbs, 15.5 lbs/ day last 5
889 Sundstrom - day 51 , 350 ott, 900 lbs. 14.5 lbs/ day
763 Young has not rotted yet. It looks like it has put a little weight on since the splits. I am now thinking that the splits may not be the reason for the sudden growth stoppage, I am sure that the rotting vines have played a big part. Day 67 - 185.5 " circumference, 379 ott, 1139 pounds. More orange and more cantaloping happening.
Some notes for July : put on 889 pounds on in July averaged 28.7 pounds a day in July 40 lbs/ day the last 5 days in July before the splits A lot of rain before splits (2.5 INCHES) I have mice under it, caught one with a trap. Last night I set the trap again and something took the trap !!Probably stuck on a coons nose.
