The plant above (1760 Uhlmeyer - west in patch) was a third backup replacing the 2517 Mendi which failed after two days due to cold under identical conditions to 3 others which had no problems (all were covered, heat cables, and lamps) . Note that the root system on the plant seemed relatively under developed at the time of planting. Subsequently that plant was replaced with a 2091 that showed no growth at all after 10 days. Finally the 1760, which had two badly damage leaves was put there as the last available backup. (I already had a 1760 growing in the east section of the patch. The plant is growing like crazy with more secondary vines than any other at this point, but it's only had one pumpkin on the main at 16' which aborted due to hot weather, I think. Hope I can get another one pollinated soon.
