I've seen a number posts or diary entries mention not wanting to pollinate before 10' on the mainvine. Someone mentioned pollinating one at 10' for "practice". Maybe that's conventional thinking, but the 1725 Harp is listed as being pollinated at the 9.5' mark (on the AGGC). Just something to consider.

I pollinate mine at 20-25 ft out usually. A little further than most.

Yeah hoo, thats is good to hear, 1725 was 9 1/2 out, I've only got 10-12 ft to have a main vine.

14 feet out the last few days of june or very early july seems to be the target.Ive got a very late plant that I may try one 6-7 feet out just to see how it does

I have some minor side vine issues so I am planning on pollinating the first week of July at like 20-25 feet to make up for the side-vine issue. lol
