Yesterday was a day of firsts. First female AG appeared, first male AG flowers opened, first long gourd female showed um, 6" above the ground. This morning I started tilling some weeds up when the tiller gear box started clattering and the wheels quit turning. Now I have to get Jacob to help me load it into the truck so I can try to fix it. In the meanwhile, I sprayed the weeds with glyphosate. No wind to cause drift helped. And things had been tilled once so the ground isn't too hard. My 962 with the main vine split is flagging in the heat, It needs more vine roots to survive.
