The 1501 is steadily growing at a respectable pace of about 17 lbs/day now at 575. Eh. – if survives to weigh, should clear the 1,000 mark but losing hope of 1,500. 4 fruits on the vine – 575,142,107,100 totaling 942 lbs, the vine gaining 287 lbs in 8 days or 36 lbs/day. The 1613 – pictured – produced the 1291 (20% heavy) last year the largest with the split stem growing slower, now 461 with total of 5 fruits on the vine – all solid with large stems: 461, 211, 189, 189 and 113 totaling 1,263 lbs, the vine producing 66 lbs/day. So we see a sad truth – should’ve had more faith that the 1613 would produce another prize winner and had the brass to cull all but one – even though none were on the main vine. Gotta show some gut here – maybe cull 1 a week. Hate this sport.
