1209 Kuhn 08' ( 1385 Jutras x 1556 Rodinis) I think this is the only cross that has been done this year? I could be wrong though, but none the less, this cross and seed looks like a great one to try.

The 1209 (1385) was 15% heavy and the pollinator (1556) plant grew a 853 Kuhn 08' ,the 853 was 15% heavy as well. Also gotta add, these guys was pounded with huge hail storms all season, so who really knows what these pumpkins could have actually grown to and weighed if not for the bad luck!
Just another seed for you guys to think about, cant go wrong with the cross for sure!.

Ya it looks like a great seed. If you could get Quinn to grow it and it does good four him then its a great seed.

The 1556 Rodinis must be a hybrid : )

great cross for sure boz. on paper it shows power. the 2007 top 4 producers were the 1068, 998, 1231, and 1450. you have all the top 2007 potential in one seed. this is also one of the same reasons i will be doing a similar 1385 x 1161 both ways in 2009.

eddy, did the pollen for the 1118 come from steve's 1568 by chance?
