1009 young fruit: 133, 95, 89 = 317 OTT or 672lbs.

The Fruit has been moving along slowly but surly, Averaged about 4.7 lbs a day since my last posting of numbers.

Disease is starting to win the battle over at my patch and i am losing leaves on a daily basis, at the rate i am losing leaves the plant has about 7 - 10 days left, although all vines and stump area looks very healthy.

I am very happy with the size of this fruit, I think it should go pretty heavy because i have it sunk in to a pretty good bed of sand which hopefully will add some OTT to it at harvest measurements.
