Great idea to sow the pollinator plants ahead of the main pumpkin. You are right the 2020 can be difficult to germinate

Is the plan to pollinate everything with the 2020? Is there a benefit to having a separate pollinator plant other than just to create a desired cross?

Having pollinator plants early means we definitely have male flowers when you really need them.

Is the 2819 also a pollinator?
