Hardest choice i have ever made. I am going to take the 213 kent to the Ky weighoff tomorrow. I measured it last night & it has now stoped. No growth over the last week. Current OTT is 212 or 263 lbs est. plant is finished ( 10 leaves) vines are nice still. Fruit is 87 days old now. Mine have been going about 10 lbs light so hopefully it makes 250+ The choice was over the 239 leonard. Its 83 days but still growing 1.5 per day, OTT is 214 or 270 lbs est Plant has about 50 leaves & some vines still growing. My next weighoff is 2 weeks so i hope that will be enough time for a few more lbs & still have the fruit make it ! Fingers crossed !!

I am so envious. To have two beauties like that in the patch at one time, that is something. Not enough to make me want to move down south yet, but still...

I don't know James, Living down here hasn't helped me that much LOL. I think Chris has something figured out, 4 monsters in one year is a great acheivement. Good luck Chris, I hope it's a record breaker.
