Last night I finally got things set up in the garden and 4 of 6 spots were planted. In the first tent we have the 800 Neily on the left and the 671 Dill on the right. The second tent has the 1202 Reid on the left, and the 1180 Daletas on the right. I couldn't get the 670 Daigle (damn!)or 990 Hebb to go, they would have been replaced with the first back-ups I had started, 2 of my 674s and a 749.5 Brunst, but the 674 look terrible and the 749.5 had a run-in with a curious 3 year old as it was coming out of the soil, so I've started another round of back-ups as follows: 749.5 Brunst, 535.5 Zaychowsky, 393.5 Paynter and 1041.5 Sherwood. The first seedlings looking good enough to go in the ground will be put there, and the back-ups hung on to for a bit and then double planted wherever I think they may be of use. I'm obviously leaning toward having a 749.5 in the ground as soon as possible as my second squash, and I'm leaning toward the 1041.5 as my 6th, but I'll go with the best looking of the bunch over the next few days and work from there.
