Gerhardt at 13 DAP & 25.5" CC. Still quite a bit slower than most others on the same day, but I'm still having a good time. I seem to have found a way to continue my little goof ups though, because this thing has multiple scars, probably from a windy day when the leaf stalk was too close to the young fruit. I still have some adjusting to do since my s-curve wasn't sharp enough; also had to cut the massive tap root below the fruit, finally...killed me to do that, ha! It was at least as big around as some of the smaller secondaries. All pollinations on side vines set successfully and I'm a little worried by the rapid growth on those; the one at 5 DAP is definitely larger than my main set was at 6 DAP, but it'd take a very large size difference at day ~15 for me to go with the side vine fruit.
