Three of my vines have achieved critical mass to start pollinating. This morning I pollinated my WHITE 173 to Chris' KENT 35. The kent sure can throw a lot of males; quite impressive. I put a bag of ice next to it, and a blanket over it, so let's see if my theory about cooling the females works again this year.
