Hi Ron grew the 520 in 06 on the 1101 Northrup. Had big plans when the 1101 had an encounter with a two legged pest and the main vine. Crossed the 1101 with the 1068 Wallace. Grew the 520 last year and it went 1017 at 14% heavy. Jeff Blais here in RI scored a PB in 07 on the 520 at 1106. If you are interested email me at pgr120q@aol.com. Also Ray has some 1017's available at seed outlet.com. TY Peter

Hi Peter, I conducted a search in the GPC homepage for 800+lb pumpkins grown in 07 from 600lbs or less unproven seed stock. Your 520 was a standout with 2 pumpkins over 1000 and 1 over 800lbs.
