Second germination test for the marrow seeds after a very poor first test. The 74 lb was 100% again. The 153 lb dmg failed completely again. The 105 lb dmg has 1 out of 2 again with equal vigour in the seedling this time ( I hope to grow this 2012 line as the mother 91 Hollinrake 2012 grew a total of more than 300 lbs on the 1 plant with 3 fruits I will have to try a high count multiple sowing)
The 69 lb failed completely again. None viable seeds seem to often occur it with heavy fast growing marrows that split as the opportunity for the seeds to mature is limited
The 74 lbs marrow is the only one good for seed distribution. A bit disappointing there
