This year i will have 3 plants in greenhouse, two plants back to back in big greenhouse and one in my new small greenhouse.
I have planted a 1385 Jutras and 1378 Pitura at one direction, and a 1092 Martin and 1161 Rodonis at the other direction in big greenhouse.
In small greenhouse I planted a 664,5 Liggett and a 1175 Lilja from my 998,6 pukos x 1019 Mechgelsen cross from 07.
all planted 1175 i heard of from 08 went very heavy.
I will cut one plant in every spot when time is in for it.
It will be a hard choice wich one to cut if all grows properly.

In big greenhouse I planted the 1385 Jutras and 1378 Pitura at one direction and the 1092 Martin and 1161 Rodonis at the other direction.
It will soon be time to choose what plant i will keep.
As it look for now I think it will be the 1385 Jutras and the 1092 Martin that will be the keepers.

After a struggling season with one plant there everything aborted (1092 Martin)and a lots of deformed lobes and seeds in blossom I finally got something growing.
This is my 664,5 Liggetplant with pumpkin that is 27 days today. This is my only hope for a biggie this year.
I also got a set on a sidevine on my 1378 Pitura Plant, but it dont grows fast enough to reach my goal.I also got three 1155 Lilja -08 growing, but these are Outsideplants so they are not for competition.

This is the 1378 Pitura Pumpkin, a perfect shaped one but it dont got the right speed, If I am lucky it might go over 1000 lbs at the end, but not much more.I guess plant is a little to old in its lifecycle to get the right gains. I had many deformed lobes/seeds in blossom on this one before i got this one set. First females on mainvine showed up a month earlier than the one i am growing now.
But I will do my best to keep this plant in good shape as long as i can.

Here are my pumpkin from my 1378 Pituraplant.
It weighed 1091 lbs and was 7 % Heavy.
As you can see the pumpkin is very symmetric.No week spots at all. This is the shape that never split.
The cross is 1378 x 664 Liggett.
(pollinator grew my 1380).
My best cross ever i think.
