I have a quick question....
Do to my inept germination.....I have only one seedling to transplant,
and just two more that are a little behind (just broke soil).
Since these two plants are a little behind, do you think I will still be
able to use them to cross polinate the first plant? or will they flower
at different times.
Also, what is the importance of cross pollination, can a large pumpkin
come from a single plant?
Ok, one more....is it beneficial, or detrimental to pollinate one female
with pollen from several different males...or should there be just one
dad?
