Does anyone have an males from a 772, I have a mutant of a 1028 plant, outpacing everything in the patch by far plus this thing is a neon green pumpkin that if anything like her mother will produce a blaze orange pumpkin! I may have one male from an 1110 to cross it with. Just wondering if you can ship these, Id be willing to pay whatever, also can you cut and keep them cool in the fridge to preserve for a day or two? Want to keep the orange going too nice of a pumpkin not to type deal...

how soon do you need the pollen Travis...My son has one going in the patch but it is a little behind everything...but I would think it should/would have a male or two by the end of the month if not sooner

Hey Travis sorry no 772 Poirier here(Really wish I did;))But I also have a 1110 Wallace growing and was wondering If you could post a few pictures of your patch in your diary?

P.S. If someone sends you some have them get a few "water tubes" from their local florest and send them in that with a styrofoam cup over the flower to prevent it from being crushed.

Okay well I pollinated a 3 lobed this morning with 4 1110 wallace males, probably wont keep it kinda want a four or 5 but have another one that should be a go next sat. I will contact you guys, they save in the fridge pretty good so shipping in a florist tube w ice, shouldnt be a problem. I will have get ahold of you guys and thanks a million! Travis
