            | Green Toe | Ontario | Do the bushel gourds flower on the main vine or only on the secondaries? | 3/30/2018 8:34:36 PM | 
		
            | Sandkin | Arizona | I observed male flowers on the main vine for the first 10 to 12 feet. A lot of females and males on the secondary vines. Then Females showed up on the main vine. They grow similar to squash. | 3/31/2018 9:22:48 AM | 
		
            | HankH | Partlow,Va | You will need to set fruit on one of the first lobes of a secondary like a long gourd. | 3/31/2018 10:21:45 PM | 
		
            | pumpconn | Sharon, MA | I agree Hank, and the BG on the main tends to be smaller the the 1st one on a side...Just my observation.
