Is it Navel time yet

This year's navel crop seems to taking a little longer to mature than last year.  We estimate a start date of around Novemeber 1st to begin picking in Kern County and about a week later in Fresno County.  The picture below is of washington varieties that will not be harvested until January.  We have seen significant growth over the past 6 weeks so we are now anticipating a better size structure than first predicted.
