I hand pollinated a female pumpkin today and one of the male flowers I used appeared to have two stamen. Has anyone seen this? Is it common? Could it have been that the one stamen split in two?

yep, i've had it happen here before. I think I also had one with four stamens once, but I don't quite remember.

Early male flowers on my 1075 Daletas were all that way, now they have reverted to single stamens. Have pollinated with both and both seem to have set so I don't think it makes a difference. Peace Wayne
