1578 Holub 2014. I had started another Holub plant, which failed early. Then, Scott came to the rescue and gave me one of his World Record Squash seeds. He was kind enough to tell me the other plant was most likely going to throw orange -- but he was pretty sure the 1578 was going to be a greenie. (I can confirm the first female that I saw on this plant was green. Yeah!) Anyway, the plant was started later than my other plants and was transplanted into the Southwest quadrant two weeks after the other plants. It is growing south-to-north and is moving nicely toward the end of the tunnel. I hope it will hurry so I can get a squash pollinated - and still have plenty of time to let it grow big prior to our weigh-off. More importantly, it needs to get big before we start getting a steady diet of our 100 degree days. Plants seem to shut down soon after that.
