Pollinated a 1457 Paton 4 lobe with the 1279 Barlow at 10 ft. plus three 267 Edwards watermelons and three 50 Gibson cantaloupes. A perfect summer day today for pollinating.The Barlow plant will have one open this week around 14-16 ft.The Kuhn plant has been beaten up bad and most females were on main were destroyed. The main is 15 ft now and I do not see any females in the tip yet so I may pollinate a couple on the vine vines next week. We pollinated a 5 lobe 919 Richards Friday at 10 ft with my 800 plant. The other 2 plants there are only 6 ft yet. The farm Plants are taking off now but Julies 1354 plant turned into a flat vine then split into 2 vines so I cut one vine off. I should be pollinating there around July 10.
