No good news here. Its been a tough couple of weeks. I lost a good friend. In my new patch the weeds have taken over, the tiller broke, my lawn mower wont' start and a psychotic deer has decided my patch is his favorite restaurant. I need to call Brad Paisley, there are plenty of lyrics there for a country and western song. My plants were small and stunted from all of the cold weather but the buck decided to snap the main vines off of the 1272 Hilstosky and the 1161 Radonis and prune the secondary's for me as well. I planned on suprising Rocky with some positive news on a 1502 Wallace that I had growing when "Bullwinkle" decided to prune that too and yanked so hard the main is 75 percent broken through. UGHHHH. I have it fenced in but he flies right over it. I am about ready to go "Pumpkinbrat" and turn it over for next year. The main patch at my moms is a little better but the maggots have me behind schedule too. I pollinated one at about 10 feet on my 834 a couple of days ago so I will have to wait and see if it takes and my 992 looks healthy but won't have a female ready for a few days yet. We are going to need a great fall season with perfect weather for me to get something respectable. The Dyberry patch guy has things looking better so if Honesdale is going to defeat Sayre it may have to come from Andy's patch.
