The patch is on fire at the moment and were very happy with the way things are going. We've been venting at 22C or 74F this year which is two degrees higher than last year which does account for the good growth rates. It's always a bit of a dilemma with starting the pumpkins for us because as our show is late in the year. We will always be finished with growth well before the show but we want our pumpkins to be growing during the longest days. Anyway on day 59 our 2624 is 1818lbs up 187lbs for the week and averaging 26lbs a day.
