Cornerstone Update > After last weeks loss of two fruit to BES Roy and I are a bit shell shocked. Gingerly we lifted up the sheets this morning expecting the worst. Still intact, all remaining plants and pumpkins are good to go.

Here is Roy with Xray off the 898 Knauss, Day 42 at 148 + 83 + 89 or 320". Xray is pretty much right on track of the 1200 pound OTT Benchmark and maybe even a day or so ahead of schedule.

The other two fruit that had split last week had extremely thick walls and were very heavy. We are expecting that Xray will be very due to not only the genetics but its treatment. We are giving this fruit the very special GVGO sauce mix every 7 days.
