I started four plants for friends this week and one of the seedlings has 3 Cots. What's with that. Will it be ok, or is it going to be a genetic mutation? Mark

I had a seedling with 3 cots last year. I didn't have any problems with the plant though.

Wiz...I'll take a picture tomorrow and post it. Other than the 3 cots she seems normal? Usually I wouldn't care because I probably wouldn't plant it myself...but I don't want to give someone a plant that is going to be a problem. If I decide to keep it I might just plant it in the corner of the patch and see what happens. Mark

Just found this out myself last week. They fall dry up and fall off.

Milford,
Barry Todd, seasoned Colorado grower, told me this week he had a successful siamese pumpkin grow, two seed cavities, most seeds he has ever gotten from a pumpkin......wish I had a pic of that one....If you have space. Grow it.
