My 980 Steil went down today. It was the 980 Steil x 1556.5 Werner. The blossom end rotted at day 15 and was basically a big hole but it did not go to the interior so I nursed it along. It made it until today when I could probe all the way to the inside. Ironically today my new digital lifting scale arrived so I was able to get an UOW. TOday was day 61 and the final measurements were 141-98-93 or 332 OTT and an UOW of 828 on the scale. The plant had bad hail damage and the pumpkin did not have much growing left but it is always nice to make it to the end of the season.
