1789Wallace plant. Pollinated one at 7ft out a week or so ago and had to wait for a new one . Finally i found one showing up at 18ft. and ready to pollinate by june30 i guess. Although i planted a week earlier i'm about 10 days behind compared to last year due to the cold spring we had. But plants look great and there's still hope for a new pb :)

Female bud on the 1694meier. This one is 17ft out. On june20 i pollinated one at 11ft out but it had some seeds in the blossum and i'm not sure i can go with that one.

1694meier. Shadecloth over the younger part of the plant. My experience is older leaves don't get burned anyways . Pumpkin only 6 days old and still hiding uder the leaves.
