1444 Halverson, last year's Howard Dill winner at Anamosa. I plan to pollinate this with the 1047.5. From all of the pictures you can see that my second cover crop of the season (weeds) is doing great. Everything got tilled once to knock back the rye, smooth out the lumps from adding lots of topsoil last fall, and to incorporate the compost and fertilizers. Time to start tilling in the weeds ahead of the pumpkins. We had some needed rain this morning, soil should be fit to till by tomorrow evening.
