(photo from June 4th). The 1832.5 Graham was pollinated 2 days ago. The lobes weren't great - not very symmetrical. But it may still be the keeper as there aren't more pumpkins showing in the main vine, except maybe a speck of one. So may have to take a risk with this to maintain the early pollination date. This morning (48 hours later) I applied Anthesis to extend the duration of cell division. It's also been under a Styrofoam cooler with iced bottles since pollination to keep it cool in the heat.
