Another day of slow growth--oh well. Pumpkin seems to be limping along at a snail pace now--a mere 5-8 lb gain from yesterday. I think it has seen its best days of growth. Right now it is about 630 lbs (316 OTT) on day 59 of its growth. I think it could be a fair bit heavier as it is thumping a lot harder than it did, and also because I am not measuring it on a flat surface. (but I don't think it is over 700 lbs). Seeing as I may not be able to move it out of the yard for weigh-off I have figured out a way to weigh it without cutting it to pieces (more to come on that later). Weather is supposed to get hotter, but I have my doubts about anymore big growth. Still, I beat my first year PB of 249 lbs by a mile! Also, if it decides to grow long at 5-8 lbs a day (which I doubt right now) it could gain another 200 lbs in September and October. Who knows. . .
