The next week will be busy pollinating pumpkins on all fall plants except the 893 Privitera and 1178 Lovelace which have 2-3 set on now. Toms 893 plant will be very small because of the 1566 plant had trouble setting pumpkins at 10-15 feet and have one set at 18 or more. So I lost around 100 sq. feet of space for the 893 plant plus the hail snapped the main off at 15. The best one set is at 8 feet but still 2 more to open till end of main. The plant will be only 18 feet wide and 18 feet long at the most.I may work a few vines into the 1566 plant area. Next year there will be only 3 AG plants at the most inside. The 1178 Lovelace sets are all long shaped fruit.
