Today is a good day, it�s the day of my first pollination in 2014 :-). After a very warm April I had been dreaming of mid-June pollinations, but now June 30th was the first pollination out of a total of six plants. Have a look at the dates of the pics taken, now you can probably imagine how terrible our summer weather had been during the past weeks. I haven�t seen such slow development of females in the past (vine growth isn�t any better either).
Oh, almost forgot, the cross is 1209 Shenoha x 1874 Mathison, main vine, 7 ft (correct, 7 ft and likely to become the keeper), 16 secondaries between fruit and stump...go figure!
