We dodged another big storm last night. We just got sprinkles but one county to the north they got 10" to 12" in just a few hours. The bifenthrin spray really thinned out the cucumber beetles, but a few are still around. If I can get some dry time I will hit them with another insecticide and garlic. We also have one more Biota Max tablet to use and plan to apply some tea if it ever dries out.
The 1351 Trumm is closing in on 300# and the 1209 Courson is just a few pounds back. The 1674 Marsh is still a bit smaller due to the 10 day later polination, but by days after pollination it is ahead of the others. I pollinated a female at the end of the 1548 Marsh this morning between showers. We might have a couple open pollinations on this one, but all the controlled pollinations aborted in the heat.
