Hey folks. If you are like me, cannot sit still, and need something to do/read/calculate to keep yourself busy while waiting for the days to tick by- then i suggest checking out my most recent update on my website. I added all my growth data from last year's biggest fruit. You can find it at the bottom of the home page. This info can serve as a great reference for those of you shooting for 700-800lb fruit. Growth rates are specific to regional and climatic differences, but I tend to believe that WI weather is roughly similar to most of the upper mid-west growing area. For those of you with similar data, i urge you to make it available in any way possible. This is the kind of info I would have paid for last year, having not grown these things before and not knowing what to expect.

Joze-

I have some growth data from the 1131 Checkon 1999.
That they sent to me.
-total OTT from july to sept 8th.
it's a great set of data -but can discourage you
easily because it's hard to match.
I also have their soil test results from that year.

I also have good data for a 520 lb-er that I grew
in 2000.
I'm sure others have data out there too.
I don't have a personal web site to put it on
but I could email it to anyone who wants it
or to someone to put up on their site.
