Glad to hear you've found you'll be following in 2017 Brent!

PhiaGardener. Of the F2 I grew this year I saved seed from one plant and will grow F3 from that plant (will share pics when I open the squash to harvest seed). I selected it for flavor. It was a good viner, but not quite as rambling as another plant, but it has a bit better flavor. What I liked about this one (F2W1) in addition to taste was early production and tremendous branching, with a high rate of female flower production on each branch. I did not get much from the late planting and nothing I wanted to risk trying to get from maturity. Next year I'll grow some F3 plants and probably more F2 as well.

My plants have tolerated powdery mildew quite well and are still prolifically producing, aided by our warm and wet September.
