It looks like a miracle, about a month ago I was playing with thoughts such as pulling my 1140 Finders plant or keeping it as a pollinator plant or keeping just one or two vines of it for a genetics pumpkin??? (After too much rain and too cold soil the plant was looking worse and worse from day to day.) Even two weeks ago it wasn�t looking too nice, had very short internodals and very small leaves...looking worse than a buttercup squash plant. Suddenly...there�s a main vine with nice leaves and enough space between the leaf nodes and some good secondaries and...a female will appear soon at about 8 ft. This plant must have awesome genetics. Changed my mind now, will definitely keep this plant to see what it can produce in August/September.
