OTTs
Fellow Fanatics---the following OTTs are the average of 9 of my best AGs
spread over several years.
All the numbers tell me is whether I am on track for a possible 900 pounder.
A column of differences tells me if any one AG this year is gaining on or
falling away from that objective.A curvre can be easily plotted by those so
inclined.
July 29--203"
Aug 2----234"
6----258"
10---277"
14---292"
18---306"
22---317"
26---326"
30---333"
Sept 3---338"
7---342"
11--346"
15--349"
19--351"
23--353"
27--354"
Oct 1----355"
I measure only each 4 days and convert to pounds using the Stellpflug tables
to get my 4 day average(estimated) weight gain.
This evening not one of my AGs met the Aug 2-234" figure but they were
pollinated later than usual and a couple of them will likely soon catch up
to the above figures.
We live on hope.--AE
