A ten lb loss for one week is just about normal. In 99 Provencher had a
fruit that weighed 720 lbs in Gentilly (same date as Lennoxville) and it
weighed 708 in Ottawa on the 2nd (I was there both times).
On a slightly different note, I would personaly consider 576 lbs as an
official weight. The fact that it was weighed at an independant site does
not matter.
Thanks again for the info and best of luck in '00
Till next time....
