Measurements and estimated weights this morning with average gain over past 4 days. 2036 Glasier West pumpkin 32 DAP 245# @ 12#/day. East pumpkin 29 DAP, 327# @ 21#/day. 1493 Witter Benson 32 DAP 372# @ 26 #/day. 1692 McMullen 31 DAP, 352# @ 21#/day. 1928 Globus 38 DAP, 452# @ 18#/ day. 359 Foss, 37DAP, 536# @ 37# day. The 359 is keeping its great shape and color just gets better.
The Volunteer pumpkin was blossom end split to the cavity at about 150#. Jacob and I will need to cut it up, haul it out and pull the plan. I could let a new open pollination go, but no sense in just pulling more nutrients out of the water. It will give us a chance to get an early cover crop growing.
