Re: Weigh-off sites in the Pacific Northwest
Chris,
Thanks for your information. I know it is a way off, but so far I have a 112
pounder (an early fruit set) and several others that look like they wouldn't
be an embarrassment to take to local weigh-offs. I know a zillion things can
go wrong between now and the weigh-offs, but I will do all I can to water
and fertilize and hopefully I can get something of decent size.
