Debruska, if you have problems with bees when pollinating you can always pour honey on your back and get done what you are doing.

Riding the Green Stallion again...800 Neily for sure.

And although pulling up lame last year with a soft spot on her belly, she also has a chip on her shoulder. 'Miss 1217' has something to prove, and will definitely be running in the "Great Filly Race":)

I'm going to try my hand at a green squash this year for the first time, a 1063 Mackenzie '05. I'm not sure if I should self-pollinate it, or cross with one of my AG plants as several others have indicated that they have done. My AGs will be a 992 Glasier '05 and a 1142 van Kooten '04. Any suggestions on what you guys would do?
