 Well GB  it came in an envelope saying 602 Brooks ......
 Is your fruit set on your flat vine ?  Or on a side vine ?
 Have you cut off the tip of your flat vine ?
 Yes it does look like your LD plant, but this vine is not as thick as yours.
 And has just started getting strange looking this week.
 Maybe we will have a Siamese Twin Giant Pumpkin Contest at Topsfield this
 year.

The LD 560 Flat vine has set fruit on the flat vine.  I will also be setting 
fruit on side vines.  I cut the flat vine a few days ago at approximately 
15'.  The 602 is a traditional looking very healthy plant and has appeared to 
have set fruit, it aborted the first fruit set on 6/10 and set another on 
6/18.  It's still early, I normally set fruit between 6/20 & 7/10.  I'll take 
a set early though because we could go into a hot spell later and not be able 
to set any in time.  I can always cull them later if nee be.  I will do a 
more complete update at the end of the month.  I'm real interested on seeing 
how a Pumpkin grows on the flat vine.

Hope you grow the second biggest Pumpkin in the world this year.  :-)

George
