The 746 Snyder plant is doing well and the fruit is growing nicely.

The 1334 Daletas and 1363 Werner are both doing well and look like they have had successful pollinations. Both plants are a little undersized but other than that both seem to be doing great.

I have a few more pollinations done that I intend to keep, they are:

806 McKie x self
1131* Timm x 1055* Pitura
899.5 Snyder x 511 Eddy Z
1188 Krug x sib
1173 Koch x self

The only plants I haven't got a main vine set on yet are the 614 Gerry, its a couple days away yet, and my 381 Snyder that went into the ground very late. I haven't done any pollinations on secondaries on any of my plants yet, but I will. I'm thinkng of doing a pumpkin x squash cross on a secondary of my 629. When the fruits are small they're all green. I thought it was going to throw squash early on. The green slowly fades and the fruits turn all white around day 10 however. Its hard to say what these will look like in the end.
