Well this year definitely wasn't one of my better years. Extreme changes in temps, trying to rebuild a garage and moving over 600+ yards of dirt that that was delivered periodically through out the summer made growing a challenge. 2 of 5 plants did not produce anything I will try to post some pics of the better things that I was able to have some success.
My crosses for the year are:
1162 Barker 2118 Barron x 2054 Wallace went roughly 9% heavy
910 Barker 1525.5 Barker /Pugh x 2118 Barron
My most excited cross was a squash cross. I
My 842 Barker x 1109 Jutras
I had Called Cindy T in late June and asked for some pollen The pollen I got was off her 1109 Justras which ended up going 18% heavy at 2030 pounds. needless to say I was excited to see her squash do what it did. I had planned on not growing next year. Now I may have to give my 842 and 3 other pumpkins a shot.
