I am running behind last season and behind where I wanted to be this season. My pollinations were later and my plants were slower to develope this year. How about everyone else?

I haven't had any pollinations yet. About 3 weeks behind. Mostly weather related, and partly planting site location related, I'm guessing.

about seven years behind....fusaria 2 years, 2 years of bringing in leaves, 3 years waiting fo leaves to rot, oh yeah we're growing what are they called again....no wonder I can't train a vine.

Right on schedule. Within 3 lbs of the fruit from last year on the same day...hopefully the fruit this year keep on growing past when the last ones stopped, lol.

Two weeks behind. I started pollinating a few days ago and will continue over the next week. We had very cool temps in May.

Considering that I'm just pollinating today at 13'I'd say I'm at least two weeks behind (started April 14). We can hope for fast growing pumpkins

At least two weeks behind... I did get one nice pollination at 14ft on a 985 werner (on 7/3 )but now it appears too have stop growing (abort)... so my earliest pollinations will be 7/8.
