Since we got about 1/2" of rain last night it looks like the 1365 '11 Singelton Female will open this afternoon so I've just put a cup on it and will most likely cross it with the 1308 Barenie or possibly the est525 '11 Puricelli. Big-N-Orange. Put up more hail netting and shade cover on the 1232 M. Smith, 1399.5 Marsh, 1365 Singlelton and est 525 Puricelli. The 1449.5 Traylor has still got issues with the main bunching up...not only the main but all the secondaries now also. It has a female just coming out on the end of the main but it is so small I can't see it amounting to anything..time will tell. The 1308 Barenie is doing very well with two Females out front at 16 & 18 ft and the last remaining 1333 Dodge has a female out at 13 ft. All the Field pumkin plants are doing well. Cut 16 pounds of broccoli last night (lots of blanching and bagging today. Tied up more tomato plants with strips of old bed sheet to the main center wire for support..They are just so loaded down I can't believe it. Got 7 Zuccini on with more female poppin. All 120 Pepper Plants are in full bloom or got peppers on...Note to Self...Order a couple of Semi Loads of freezer Bags lol. Last year every time I would buy vegetable trays from Wally World I would save the Orange, Yellow and red sweet Pepper seeds and so I started all of those and the typical bells and sweet Banana Peppers..they all numbered to 120 plants..yikes!!
