Re: Pumpkin Time?


Lubadud-this is an irrelevent question for you. I heard through the 
punkinvine that someone beating my best with one of your seeds would 
make your season. I see you have the correct level of expectations for 
the domes output. I have now been working with a Shaman witchdoctor and 
he insure me I will set fruit soon. Seriously, I must thank you Marvin 
for the expert advice you gave me on pollinating those females. Cutting 
off the male right underneath that yellow egg, rubbing it on the female 
with the skinny stem, I could have never figured that out myself. You 
told me fruitset would happen if I did that so I have all the confidence 
a good friend can give me. Thanks good buddy.

ZOO DOO
