Day 10 has arrived for "Pork Chop" but before I get to the measurments I'll just mention that I have pollinated another one on the store bought AG, so besides "Pork Chop" there is one on the back vine 2' from the end and another about 1.5' past this one. One will be culled and one grown as company for "Pork Chop".

Day 10 measurements: 22" circumference, 16.75" Side to side, 17.5" stem to blossom = OTT 56.25" or about 5lbs.

His rate of growth was at 3.5" circumference at start of growing but has slowed to about 1" in last three days I believe it is due to the chilly evening's down to 8 degrees C or about 40 F. weather is suppose to be higher 20's to low 30's next five days, so hopefully evenings will be from 15 to 18 degrees C. As well built a shade structure over him.
