Re: Indiana update


Hi brad.  I have tiny pumpkins at the end of all my vines right now as well 
as some that are 2 to 3 days away from polination.  I already tryed to 
polinate one female but it aborted, I guess it was too soon or maybe it was 
the hail.  But regardless I have females getting close.  I also have a big 
max pumpkin that has been growing for 16 days and is 37 inches in 
circumfrance and 87 inches total.  According to daily measurements it is 
growing about 2 to 3 llbs a day so I am hoping for a 100 pounder from her
