Day 70 for the 811 Gerhardt (150 SF contest)
Circumference = 133"
Ott = 306"
Estimated weight = 638 pounds
Average gain last 5 days = 4.8 pounds per day.

Fall is definitely here. There is a crispness in the air and the pumpkin growth has curtailed sharply. There's still 32 days to go until Central Market. I hope it holds on that long. Last year my central market pumpkin on about the same size and same age plant put on 150 pounds in the last 30 days. I am setting 750 pounds as a goal for this one.
