359 Foss 24 DAP. Self pollinated 5 lobe 14' from stump on July 2. We culled one that was pollinated a day earlier on a secondary. Most of the vine growth has been terminated. We usually let the main and a couple secondaries grow to keep some fresh leaves on the plant. Plus there are always a few pop-up tertiaries that we missed that get snipped when they show up. I tape a sharp pocketknife to a pole for terminating pop-ups so I don't have to wade in and compact the soil.
