Went to Indiana to see some old friends. I cut the 1784 Glazier loose a couple hours early as I failed to reach one of my goals this year of 1200 pounds. Absolutely no complaints since she went 1199. Thanks Pete and Cindy for the seed! If more folks grow this seed you'll see some HD winners from it. She was grown in the fair patch which wasn't near as weedy as what the competition patch is. I'm hoping to dig around in the weeds and find something still alive to take to Cullman. Best crop of lambs quarter I've ever had. The squash I took was way too light in color to suit me so at this time I don't intend to grow any of the seeds from her even though she is crossed with the 282 Scherber. I've got the 282 crossed with 1175* Holub which was much darker before the squash bugs took her out. I'm trying to line up a greenhouse for a winter project to save a season in the squash project. Got wind of a good squash out there from one of my seeds that has fueled the fire. Fingers crossed she stays intact.
