day 85 for the 811 Gerhardt. (150 SF contest)
Circumference = 137.5"
OTT = 316.5"
Estimated weight = 703 Pounds
Average gain last 5 days = 4.4 pounds per day.

I cleared some of the leaves around the pumpkin to expose it to more light and hopefully deepen the color. She is really pretty from the stem side. 17 more days till weighoff. Still hoping I can win this contest. VT Wilbur has a nice one growing that he said was taping mid 600s last week and I am sure there are some sandbaggers out there.... but If I can keep it growing for another 2 weeks, I like my chances.
