I really hope this one takes. But, I doubt it will. Eventough I took some precautions by snipping flowers yesterday, the pollen inside still seemed a bit damp. Maybe I should have taken them out of the jar of water for an hour or so before pollinating. So, it could be my fault. But, for now, in the imortal words of Milli Vanilli (or, at least, the words they lipsynched to) I am going to "blame it on the rain."

In any case, this will probably not be a competitive pumpkin. But, it'll make a cool jack-o-lantern and will help me learn more about growing.
