got the stem dried and healed on noah. lost about 10 percent of the total stem but it seems in check for now and at day 60 it is 329.5 ott and estimated at 749 pounds and growing very slowly now. 4 days of weeping and bleaching and drying and healing of the stem couldn't have helped in the weight department much, but i am just hoping to keep the stem healthy to keep the pumpkin healthy and last for another 39 days for the weigh off. hoping to break the 800 mark with noah which will not be a personal best, but it will be a personal best on a pumpkin grown from my own seed crosses. i am hoping that tre' will continue on to make a race of it maybe cuz it has put on 13 pounds a day for the last 3 and is at 304" ott and estimated at 594 lbs on day 52. not bad so far for a 3 lober. its stem splits are fine and in check also. i have to say one thing for sure, i am a big fan of the fan. on a side note, got the monkey off our backs in the 4th inning against the yankees yesterday while hitting back to back to back homeruns followed by 2 singles and another jack off randy johnson to wake the whitesox up from this 7 game losing streak. can't anything ever be easy?....but how interesting or fun would that be....not much....but a lot easier on my nerves and temper. lol. there is no crying in baseball or pumpkin growing!!!!!!!!!
