It has been a while since I updated my diary. I figured it was about time to get some pictures up of what I have going so far. In this picture you are seeing the 1578 Holub squash. I have this one growing on a secondary vine. I am not sure what is going on with the plant as the new vines and leaves seem stunted. The squash fruit are obviously still growing though. I hit the plant with some nitrogen, hopefully this will get the plant moving once again. I am having a hard time culling my secondary sets this year as they are all better shaped and faster growing than the sets on the main. I know, I know, you don't have to tell me it will take pounds off, but sometimes I would rather get something over nothing. Allowing two to grow, doubles my chances of making it to the finish with at least one squash off this plant.
