Shiver me timbers it's cold for August. Put the blankets on the kins this evening. 48 for a low tonight which means much colder at my place. My 1684 Delaney is at the 500 pound mark but the 1623 Wallace plant is catching up fast. The 1623 is 7 days younger but almost at 500. First long gourd is at 3ft and going. Sunflower are around 12 foot. Got an inch of rain yesterday, watching close for cracks and growth spurts. No bugs in the patch as of yet. I have kept up on the spray schedule pretty good. Having that Stihl really helps. Cut the first Filed Pumpkin off the 81 Wolf today. It was 81 wolf x 209 Werner. Weighed in at 72lbs. Not to bad considering 6 kins growing on the plant.
