The 1236 has maybe 10 small holes in the leaves but came through nearly perfectly fine. The 1161 got hit pretty good on the right hand side. Left hand side was untouched. The main didn't seem to be effected. It will slow down this plant some but I'm guessing it will be fine. It is the Phoenix.

I read a report two years ago where they fired ice at pumpkin plants to similate hail at different points of the season. The plants hit early season actually had high yields and greater average weights than the control plants and plants hit later in the season. Hope that proves true for me. I could do just fine without hail.
