list, we have a small patch, planning on 2 plants each allotted 25' x
30'.... can we plant pollinator plants in less than desirable conditions
elsewhere in the yard and still get viable male flowers at the right
time... we have some great seeds that could provide great crosses but don't
want to crowd the main patch.  Any opinions would be appreciated, and
thanks to all of you for the seeds


I guess the secret is out....and all along my nieghbors thought I was giving
them "special plants" so they could grow a big one....silly them,they were
special selections for my pollinating !......they can grow anywhere as long
as they're happy enough to grow.............might I suggest growing more side
vine than main vine as you tend to get more males that way........Glenn (this
year my nieghbor's pumpkin is gonna be a "squash surprise"......well, a
surprise for HIM anyway !) (just kidding)
