I was really hoping for some noticable gains today, but it looks to be near shutdown. Only taped out to 209 inches. Just two inches from Saturday:(. Bummer. Several rot spots here and there popping up. Had to cut off a back secondary in hopes of getting a porch pumpkin off it. !036 Slone is still having a hard time setting a pollination. There's about six on it right now, the oldest being about four days. A couple of nice opens of course! I'm still very proud of my first year efforts, knowing how ruff a season this has been for all. I've topped 200 (a PB for me) and I've got time to learn a bunch more, and maybe I sneak up on a nice keeper before it's over!
