My biggest day 20 pumpkin measured 51-54-81(842 Eaton)

I measured one yesterday at day 21 and it was 54-57-77

I only have the circ measurment for the other pumpkin at day 20 and it was 80 inches (1260 Weir)

you are doing great. 150 ott or higher is the goal for day 20. Day 20 to day 50 is where it really counts, what you do during this time will reflect your final weight. A good pumpkin usually peaks out around day 25 to 35 with 30 plus lbs per day. The longer you can hang onto the growth, the better. Jimmy

My fruit on the 1230 Daletas will be 20 days old tommorow. It is currently at 81 circumferance and has been averageing about 5 inches per day. This fruit will be my best ever at day 20.

The fruit on my 1239 Daletas is a 16 days old and measures 48" circ with 118 OTT, a good pace ( best I've ever had) for me here in Colorado but not great.
