checked the gvgo and they don't list a 450 langevin. i have seed out of his 400 langevin and that cross is 1502 wallace x 1068 wallace.

I was reviewing the GPC 2008 results and see that a 450 Langevin is entered as the mother of a 1002.5 pumpkin that was weighed in Minnesota...perhaps it's an error.

Thanks!

I talked to Mitch...the grower of that 1002.5 lb. pumpkin last Sunday, and saw his pumpkin. I recall him saying it was a Langevin seed. I don't recall exactly, but remember it being a 400 or 450(or similar wt.) Langevin seed.
The pumpkin had great shape with very very little ribbing. An impressive looking pumpkin.
