After returning from California I found 3 vines with YVD and going down. I've decided to terminate all but 2 genetic plants with hopes of getting one special cross. If they show any bad signs they will get the tiller also. I'm really trying to break the live cycle of the squash bugs here. I nuked all the plants with a strong dose of insecticide in hopes of killing the beggers. Haven't seen hardly any since the first day I returned and sprayed. Pictured is the 1445.5 Jutras. Not many solid seeds. nice thick walls. Didn't weigh it but estimated at 343. Crossed it with a 694 Cantrell which was 25% heavy The offspring on the 694 had very good color and looked like it was going to be long. We'll never know for sure. THICK walls on it but she was young. Hope to keep that plant alive long enough for 1 more pollination.
