RE: Rick's web site updated


Pea-sized fruit already?  I seem to be both way ahead and way behind.

I started an early plant (Maston 570) on April 14th which already has a 10
day old fruit.  My other plants (Corkum 616*, Hester 895*, Troy 654 &
Sherwood 598) were started May 20th and are just starting to run.  

I have some 'tweener plants (Hebb 990* & 917* & Moss 873.5) from the IPGA
seminar, but they were all stunted by frost and are behind the later
plantings.  I am basically just curious to see what these plants might do.
I will probably remove them if they don't take off soon.  I am really glad I
started the later seeds!

Of course, having the early plant really gets the juices flowing for the
season!  I am already starting to measure fruit...what a great feeling!

Howdy, fellow pumpkineers!

I was surprised to discover that I've got some pea-sized fruit already, one
yellow and one green!
I've updated this year's web site with new pix...

(There's a link at the top to past years' results, too.)

This year, I'm growing:
   -128 Inzero 01 (very deep orange; 986 Hester 00 f x 983.6 Ciliberto 00)
   -547 Kournikakis 00 (produced 703* Smith 01- very green squash; 935 Lloyd
97 x self)
   -771* Stellpflug 01 (895 Hester 00 f x 611 Stellpflug)
   -194 Inzero 01 (nice looking cross; 850.5 Hester 99 f x 986.6 Ciliberto
00)
