This is my experiment on a rare squash called Triamble.
When pollinating I pollinated the bottom lobe with 183 Bosworth pollen. 30 minutes later I uncovered the bloom and pollinated the other 2 lobes with Triamble squash pollen (self pollination)
In theory the seeds from lobe 1 (Bosworth lobe) will grow some bizzare orange squash with a weight well over 10 lbs. Seeds from lobes 2&3 will only grow green 3 lb. Triamble squash.
Now I will wait and see if the pollination took.
I hope so as I won't have anymore 183 Bosworth pollen to work with.
