Yesterday the 3rd of July I pollinated the East Patch 308 est Shewmaker with the 1734.5 Steil and also pollinated the 3rd kin on my 801 est dmg kin with the 401 Buck. Degrees at pollination yesterday morning was 56 degrees, yes 56 degrees,lol. Have some great kins growing well ahead of 1200+ benchmarks for day 20 numbers, can't wait to see what they are at day 30. Sprayed yesterday evening for Squash bugs and cukes. 1734.5 Steil plant has still got me amazed at its recovery and has a very nice kin set on it, a really really long kin. The 83.5" DeMars Long Gourd plant is huge with around 10 LG's set on it. Will begin to cull here shortly. Tomatoes are all doing really good. 260 Clementz Plant is unbelievable, with the grafted trunk doing awesome and no splitting, melon is getting heavy w/ a second very nice shaped melon pollinated yesterday just to see what she does. Happy Fourth of July Everyone!!!
