I inspected my 2 best prospects yesterday and discovered potential season breakers in the making. My 845 has a stem split opening which stretches to the edge of the fruit. It is currently small and I plugged it with a Captan paste. As I took a closer look at my 998 Pukos I noticed a weeping slit on the blossom end. I have not liked the indented blossom on this one so I hope it is not the beginning of a split. The cool nights and last weeks rains have not been good. Tomorrow is only day 30 for both of these. I hope Rocky isn't sitting up there poking pins in his pumpkin vodoo doll.
