Started soaking a 263 Est. (1103 Zaychowski x 1462 Gibson) early a.m. today because it might be a good plant.
Using garden dirt from an area I probably shouldnt... Oh well. If it passes this resistence-to-disease test then it will then get to proceed to the next test. I am relying entirely on strong genetics.
Looking for a late May pollination... New growers... dont try to copy me. April is the month to start if you want a pumpkin in October. I am playing with an end of August target. And I am more interested in playing around than winning. Maybe that will change someday? Meanwhile... hopefully various top growers will post diaries about how to actually win.

Will start the 5.12 MacDonald 'domingo' for the extra early tomato plant.
