401.5 Buck aborted @ 28 dap, 248 ott. No gains for the last three days & its thump has gone away. Was growing well above avg & kaput. With that said the 1314 est Bryson, (knock on wood) is getting impressive splits around its stem due to the 29 avg lbs/day its been putting on. You can't see the 4' x 4' sand covered plywood anymore under it so I have been putting 10" x 6'x 1" planks with sand down and it has covered those by more than half,lol. I'm not complaining. I've got two fans on it, stem and the top storm damage,(rain pooled on top so I'm drying it out with sulfer also. Got a melon set on the 291 Kent so that makes 3 melons set, 1 ea. on the 291&297 Kents & 260.5 Clementz. I got one Huge Rutabaga that sorta reminds me of an ex mother-in-law but I wont say that on here because it just wouldn't be right. 308 Shewmaker along with the 1734.5 Steil are making incredible gains and the 83.5" DeMars Long Gourd is 87" this morning @ 26dap. Going to pull the 401.5 Buck this morning and cut it open, a moment of silence please.
