All fruit sets were long and resembled a football. Fruit grew low and wide. So wide the stem split vertically through and eventually into the cavity. Before the split it was raging in growth. I came out 10pct light on 428" OTT(215"cc) @1445lbs. All of this happened on a forced patch with low nutrients and 4.9pH

All my fruit resembled a cucumber shape, very aggressive plant, first one in patch to fill in 750 sq. ft. no problems from it. It went 25% heavy .I would plant it again special plant for me .

Alex Im starting to think a lot of kins that go light or split are due to low fertility issues.If your soil was low on nutrients.How often were you feeding it??

I grew the 1985 Miller and got an 823lb birdbath. Got a stem split real early and never got a decent plant. Ended up pollinating on June 29th about 8 feet out. Plant only got to about 350 square feet. Self pollinated and will try again next year.

I grew this plant. I used the 2032 as its pollinator.
the plant was strong and healthy.
I made a mistake with my techniques which resulted in a pathway for rot to get into the stem.
I would plant it again, I think it has a lot of potential
