Meanwhile the 333 is taping 79kg (173lb) at 34DAP. If growth continues at this rate we should beat our PB, though there is a lot of time ahead of us yet for things to go wrong (or right). I've certainly noticed significant increases in the growth rate when we've had sunny days recently. Sunshine and warmth makes all the difference. As such I've increased the watering and feeding, the patch has just got through 1000l in 5 days, and I am feeding both morning and evening. Next week we're off on a family holiday again for a week, and Ron has kindly agreed to pop down to the allotment and hang around for the 2 hours it takes to fill the tank!
