RE: 20-day benchmark...
A few years ago I made some "rules-of-thumb" for myself based on my records
of past good ones.
As far as I am concerned,if a little AG meets these sizes then it has
potential for a 1000+ pounder.Of course they are just rough guidelines,but
much better than nothing.
Day 10---20 inches circumference
Day 20---60
Day 30--100+
Factor in some other things and your Day 19--62" looks very good to me.--Al
Eaton

i hope so!!!
my best plant was 62" for day 19 - hopefully she's increased a few more
inches today!
would anyone care to post dates/days for measurements etc, it would be great
to check what i may be on course for as we grow.
thanks
