Here's the 827.5 Gerhardt at 6 DAP. Slow as all heck, but definitely growing, and though hard to tell in this shaded picture, very shiny. Looks like Ron Barker's magic male service did the trick! Also hard to see, but I'm in the process of adding the s-curve. I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but I'll say it again, as far as my experiences go, the giant pumpkin growing community is the nicest, most giving group of fanatics on the planet. I've gone through all sorts of obsessions over the years, weaseling my way into their respective 'cliques', and I've never encountered a more openly generous and selfless environment. It goes all the way back to Mr. Gerhardt and Mark Clementz sending seeds last season, on their dollar, to Ron this year, showing me his patch, hooking me up with some rootshield, advice and support to, now, Jamie -ArvadaBoy- sending some of his water soluble, micronutrients and turning down any offer of compensation. Rock on, people! In other news, a second female has now appeared at the end of the main, so there'll be a back up, woot.
