Was in the patch today all morning, four females opened, had two males so had to bring out the 7 fridge males. I guess you could say it was a punkin orgy in the patch.

One opened on the 700 Paynter (first female) at about 11', the main is roughly 15' long now, have it covered and two coke bottles frozen beside the female hope it takes, temp. is suppose to be 38 degress or 100 F.

The other three opened on the store bought AG. two on the main one on a main secondary coming out of the stump at about 5' out. the ones on the main are 15' and 18'. One opened at about 5' main vine around the end of june but did not pollinate it. another opened around the 3rd of July it aborted and still another opened on the 9th of July, that baby took and is about the size of a baseball.

Dead headed the main on the Store bought AG and spent the rest of the time pruning off tetritary's and burying secondary's on both plants.

I read alot of people having punkin dreams, which is funny cause maybe because I knew I had alot of females opening today or something but I had a punkin dream too last night,
Doesn't make since though I was walking into the bank but couldn't get in the doors cause the punkin I was wearing was to big, ya know arms out the side head out the top of the punkin, now that's strange I dare not tell the wife.
I've always thought when growing "Be the Punkin" but this is a little much.

Well got to run,
TTYL
