Forgot to submit last night, so I am dating this as the 3rd of August.
Well, even with the water bumped up for the past 2 days still no tremendous gains. The one on the main was up a small 9 lbs since yesterday--could have been as little as 7! It has taken 5 days to go from 408-462--about a 10 lb/day average. I did not measure the other one.
Another weird development is the concave area around the blossom end--all of a sudden it developed all these small brown age cracks or something. The skin is definitely changing, even though I keep her covered with blankets and under a tarp. Got two big spider bites in the patch yesterday--man they hurt.
Anyway, not sure why the growth has slowed down so much--it is hard to believe it is all weather related since it is still pretty hot in the day. However, I am getting a lot of wind, and the nights are really cool.
