El Paso TX.

Got 2 of the 3 I started to germinate so far (put them in the germination chamber 4 days ago and 2 broke the surface of their 5 inch peat pots this afternoon !)
the 2 that are up are :
- 421 Drum (1290 Porier x 1102 Pukos)-Hopefully a nice Orange
- 851 Fowler (1180.5 Pukos x 998 Warner)

3rd seed was a 270 est. Young (1385 Jutras x 1502 Wallace) - they were some slightly immature seeds from a pumpkin he grew for the genetics so hopefully it will still come to life (if not I've got 2 more chances) since I was hoping to use it along with the 763 Young (1502 Wallace x 1385 Jutras) to do a recross with

Figure I've got space for 4 plants so will hopefully be going with those 4 (the 763 Young and another 270 Young will be going in the Germination chamber (a rubbermaid storage container with an electric blanket at the bootom and a wire shelf for the peat pots to rest on)this weekend - along with a couple backup plants)
Spend the day today tilling the first patch and adding 3 yards of compost and a few needed amendments so it is about ready to go !! (Hopefully the weather will cooperate - figure it's 72 at 7PM this evening so hopefully it will stay that way - but the wind is really blowing tonight)
