Day 50 Survivor estimated weight is 661#, with 35 days to go. I need just 259 more pounds for a personal best, but with all of the stem problems I will settle for anything that makes it to the weigh off intact. Every day has a new issue crop up. 3 days ago I sprayed Agri Fos and bifenthrin. Bye bye cucumber beetles. 2 days ago I sprayed milk and daconil on the PM. It is getting bad near the shade tarp, and today is sunny and breezy so the tarp came off. Might help dry up the stem too. Submarine has 2 great orange pumpkins at 300# and 227#. We brought our two best long gourds in for safe keeping, and we have 2 more on the trellis that are approaching 10' long. Another one on a slant board is at 100" and staying fairly straight. It has a few more growing days left, so its time for more foliar feeding.
