Project 1 - After a great start I snapped a female clean off the vine when moving a board underneath it. About two weeks later and I finally have a pumpkin pollinated this morning (1738 Barron x self). It's the only female on the plant (its on the main) and all vines have been terminated except for the one to the left.

It's the latest I have pollinated to date but with good weather, it shouldn't be too much of a problem for this 150 patch competition plant. If it grows, it will as usual be the last one to be weighed (25th Oct, York Maze)out of all the competitors.
