Very rare seed. I only got 70 good seeds out of this pumpkin & gave them all out but 4-5 to GVGO members& a few close friends last spring. If ya got one you might want to try it. Andre Marion's PB before this year was only @ 750#, so he almost doubled it in one year. Way to go Andre.

thanks phil for the info. I got a freind who did the same cross and i might try that one. If the 947 is rare I would probably have a hard time finding it.

There were about 10-12 growers who participated in the 1446 x 1420 crossing of the 1st two 1400# pumpkins. This was put together by Al & Jack. Joe pukos crosses are doing well this year as well. Has anyone tried the 833 Hester or Bill's 825? I would like to hear from anyone that grew either seed & see how they did with it.

what did the1355 measure?

10/28/2006 10:15:58 PM

Cameron,ontario Team Lunatic

The measurements were Cir-170", S-S-120" & E-E-108" for a 398" total. Andre doesn't have a computer, so he gave me the info to add to the AGGC. I'll enter it in the AGGC later today or tomorrow.
