Both 1340 plants have done very well despite the very wet conditions. The older plant has a 4 day set. I had to self it with 2 males. I only had three males in the entire patch.
The 887 I again had only 3 males so it was pollinated with one of each 1781,887 and a very large 1725 Haist male. Two days later after some sun there were over 40 males open with of course no females to pollinate. I'm glad it only take one!

The younger one is growing pretty fast to set fruit; but has the third female on the main to open soon.
