I have a 1367Rose female pumpkin that will be ready to be pollinated tommorrow (I think,I put a baggie over it) I plan on pollinating it with the 503 Beauchemin, the problem, the 503 is a bit younger, there is only one flower that will be available tommorrow, the other few flowers it has had has not had much pollen,,I was thinking that little tiny bit should be enough, if bee's can pollinate a plant with the little tiny bit they use,,also does it efect the amount of seeds?

I've done many pollinaions with one male Richard, and got decent seed counts, it shouldn't bee a problem.

The pumpkin I pollinated today went perfect, the female was a perfect 5 lober, the one flower had tons of pollin on it.
