��Twas the night before pollination�
Sometimes you have to think out of the box. The earliest pollination I�ve ever had in the patch is hopefully going to open tomorrow.
The problem? 40s for the low temperatures and cloudy/rainy weather and males (to pollinate it with) that will only open tomorrow and not on Monday.
The hopeful solver? A mini hoop house with a space heater and grow light to speed up the process of this pumpkin to open tomorrow instead of Monday. Let�s hope 5 hours of driving today to pick up male flowers will pay off!
