Which of these would you plant for a nice big orange pumpkin?

My opinion is its a toss-up between the 982 and the 875 and if I had to chose i'd go with the 982.

I agree with Glenn.

While the 624 Manuel won the "Howard Dill Award" for the most prettiest orange pumpkin, there is not much info. on the pollinator (410 Keel '02.) While all three should throw orange, I also like the Northrups. With the Northrups, both were pollinated with the 810 Dill '99. The question is: Do you want Bill's 982 grown on an 1101 Northrup or Dawn's 875 grown on a 500 Northrup? If you have space, plant both Northrups .
