Got some PRETTY decent DAP numbers on most of my pumpkins and squash. These numbers are better than last years (last years No. 500 to 600+ on 3 plants). Some better than I have ever had at the 30 to 30+ DAP marks The plants I'm growing this year are:
1998.5 Uhlmeyer
2501 Bernstrom
1997.5 Sherwood
1857 Vanheuckelom Squash
2560 Gienger
1839 Vodkamalone Squash (150 sq Ft plant)
I had a little later pollination dates this year than I like by about a week. I usually like the to have mine done between the 20th to the 30th of June . Not later than the 8th of July at the extreme lasted. This year it is kind of weird that my latest set pumpkin is my biggest at 30 DAP and still doing really well Now its just a matter of making it to the finish line.
Some of these were replacements for ones that weren't off to a good start at the beginning of the year. Thanks to my friends Jeff Ulhmeyer and Cindy Tobeck for helping me out
