Still waiting and worrying about our seeds from the 1112.5 its a long way from home on display in Canby.... Jimmy-S will harvest them for us after Halloween, but its been warm over there so were a bit worried they will germinate inside the fruit. Our 822.5 from the Spokane Fair is still solid as a rock, we will probably carve her this weekend and harvest seeds. Our other two fruit (1420 La Rue and 611.4 Gadberry) were fulla ripe seeds...

Those with poor seed counts did you record time and temperatures day of pollinations. It would be interesting to see if the two correlate. Later in day, higher temps,high humidity equals lower pollen viability which equals less seeds.
