I gave the plants a good dusting with Bonide Eight (permetrhin). Hopefully the Merit will be getting into the plants about now. So far no bug problems and no sign of cucumber beetles. Biggest problem has been the rainy weather and not being able to keep ahead of the weeds. The 1068 Papez has a lot of roots starting to break the ground surface: it must really be wet below. The 1097.5 Privitera has had a couple of females open pollinated, but we will try a planned cross in the next couple of days. Even if just the open pollinated females are the only ones to grow, it will still be OK as everything blooming now is great genetics.
