Day 20 498 VH - 50" C, 125" Ott, around 50#, this one has been very very slow till just the past couple days, starting to pick up the pace compared to what it was doing. There was a point around the 10 day mark where I thought it may have aborted as it stayed the same size for 2 or 3 days, it may have been the heat we were having around that time, not sure. Crossed with 856. Cut my last backup fruit off it about 2 days ago so that may have helped some.

856, avg. 14 lbs a day for past 4, day 25 tomorrow. Should post some pics soon. Made my last cut on the back up side vine fruit - it was 22 days old around 80#s, now down to one fruit on each plant, its all or nothing now.

Peppers are doing good, but I've neglected them somewhat by not hand pollinating, been too busy in my spare time the the AGs, but there is some growing thanks to the insects and wind.
