Finally got the second hoop covered, just in time for blue bird weather and pretty clear skies. The 2493 on the left is day 70 in a couple days and will be day 84 on harvest day. The 2006 on the right will also be day 70 in a few days but has the luxury of an extra week in the patch than it’s patchmate and will be harvested on September 28th when she is just day 89. Both fruit are growing still about 1.5 inches OTT each day, cantalouping has also started. The remaining 2 prizewinner pumpkins will be hauled to the local Cowichan Exhibition and entered into the biggest pumpkin contest. They don’t weigh the pumpkins and winner is declared by circumference.
