Hello all,
Today marks the 50th day this year with high temperatures > 90 degrees (the
average is 30 days a year - the all time record is 60 days). In the last 6
weeks it has rained twice in my patch - things are a bit dusty.
I've got one pumpkin left on a Hester 850. The pumpkin is 33 days old: 106
- 68.5 - 66.5 --> 241 OTT --> about 298 pounds --> averaging 20 pounds a day
for the last 10 days. Pictures can be found at:

Good luck to everyone...
