Pollinated six more females this morning, including the one that is about 26 feet out on the main--I almost missed seeing the open flower as I was so preoccupied with mesasuring the other pumpkins yesterday I didn't even check. Also, I think there is about 2 others this morning that I did not pollinate because I did not have time before work--and they were'nt open yet--I will likely cull these ones anyway. So far about 24 pollinations on this one plant--including a couple of open pollinations! I have already culled 3 pumpkins, and will start culling others soon. Still looking for a really fast grower--not too late to set a pumpkin in a week or two from now, will be looking to see if there is a special one that just grows like crazy--hopefully it is the one on the main at 26--we'll see.
