Day 45 for the 1931 Turner.
Circumference = 133"
OTT = 299"
Estimated weight = 617 pounds
5 day average 32.6 pounds per day.
This is the one that has me excited. It's easily the largest I have ever had at day 45 and my best ever five day daily averge. It's 89 pounds bigger than my personal best 1223 was on Day 45 and growing faster as well. That pumpkin was the only pumpkin I ever had that sustained decent growth well past 50 days. If this one can follow a similar trajectory I feel I have a real good shot at a personal best.
The camera angle and my distance behind the pumpkin makes it look a bit larger than it really is. Look at the soda can in the foreground for reference. Its still a big pumpkin by my standards though.
