I pollinated some pumpkins last year. To me, it was not really worth it and if it had not been for a buddy, knowing what I do now, I would not do it again. The supers had a weird green-yellow "glow" to the wax, something I have not seen. It was just a very odd color to the new wax they built on the supers for the cappings. Fortunately, I had other supers to transfer to them for winter stores.
