Water,
I am not sure as to the time limit. but from my own past experience i have keep a male pumpkin flower in a vase with a little water and in the refrigerator for 12-24 hrs using them when needed and got 100% pollination. I did this in 98 and 99 with males borrowed from another growers in mjy area. They pick theres and just left them in a brown paper sack over night and it worked for them. Don't know how long they hold for sure.., anybody else know?

Count me in on the emergency pollen donor network. I'm in Ashland, MA. Can't guarantee a constant supply from either of the Kennedy 616s just quite yet, but if you're nearby and in need drop me an e-mail. If the flowers are there you could come and help yourself.

I think we should get some bright orange Igloo coolers, just like the Red Cross uses!
