This might be our last hope. I traced the vine back to the 137.5 Ansems. Last year at this day our gourds were done growing and the second crop was going down to the rust. I will hit this with everything we have, feed it and hope for the best. We have plenty of time before weigh-off, but I wish it was growing earlier in the year with more sunlight. Next year I plan improvements to the trellis and some pruning so the plants don't get so overloaded with foliage. Maybe fewer leaves and better air circulation will help.
