The Sherwood gourd measured 15.5". I thought this was 10 DAP. Not sure, that would be significantly more than the others were at 10 DAP.
Just a note for future reference.

Temps are dropping into the 70's, overnight mid 50's.

Edit: Looking at August 2nd I wrote clearly that there were two pollinations. The one I referred to as 0 DAP was pollinated on the 2nd and thats the one measuring 15.5". I will push it hard with a balanced non-chemical fertilizer. I've been using a lot of chemical fertilizer and I dont think the plants are totally thrilled with this. A heavy watering is probably needed, also.
