Just melting like usual, we have over 50% humidity at 10:30 am and 73F, I feel like I am going to puddle in my shoes.

Last pic: Talking to VTJohn, he says all his 1009's come up yellow... and throw a nice ORANGE pumpkin. So another one to file away. Humidity should burn off in a few more hours and I will be able to stand it... wind is at a good enough clip the vines shouldn't have issues either, don't need fans here!

The picture is for Bohica (Tom), this is a yesterday's shot, both pumpkins I set on FF look like this which is what the one I cut off looked like at this stage. I think FF is into nice oblong ovaly ones... all the others I cut off at this stage, about 9/10 took and look like this, I've only found two aborts. That plant takes awhile to sort through, so I've missed some... I've got a nice curve on the vine on both of the contenders... it'd down to which one grows faster. IF I can keep up on the 987 blooms this thing starts every day!
