Missed my last important pollinations too tired to go out last night and tie them and get males. I will have to wait a week for the next ones but thats ok the plants in question have plenty of space and the pumpkin weight will be the same on a bigger plant --they will make up for it by October. But its interesting to me that last year I had all my 'important' plants pollinated on the 14th. I've got some 'pariah' plants and many non-competition plants too. I did get the tomato patch fertilized... Plants are about to get huge... Diseased & huge plants there's a megabloom here-n-there so we'll see. The mid-planting is doing best. Small late planting was damaged the most by flea beetles. The early plants have not forgiven me for keeping them in mini cells for over a month.
