Mowed the rye for the 4th time as high as the mower will allow to keep it under control. Going with a much smaller line-up compared to previous years. 4 squash plants, 1445.5 Jutras, 2 - 1844.5 Holubs and a 1060 Holub. Pumpkins are 1585.5 Werner and 2075 Connoly. Will double plant all except 1060 where at least 8 will get started. Going to allow 900 square ft pet plant. Haven't gone with this few plants ever. I've found out I suck at grafting melons so I'm going 100% traditional. It doesn't break my heart as it will simplify my starting process, time and date. Melon line-up has changed just bit. Deleted the 199.5 Mudd but added the 290 Mudd and 305 Mudd. Both are 199.5 selfed from different years. 290 was traditional and 305 was grafted. Rest of the line-up if they sprout 157 Bright 04, 197 Leonard 07, 252 Neptune 10, 228 Carson 94,
