Wondering what some of you would grow if you had access to say some 1068 Wallace pollen? Not saying I do, or do I?

Maybe cross it into any of the following:

1370 Rose
664 Ligget
985 Werner
Or any of the top producing seeds of today. If you wanted to keep it all 1068 genes, the 1306 or 1507 Jutras would work.

thanks doug...i figured you would chime in...what about pollinating a 1502 Wallace or a 1402 Wallace or say 1068 Papez???? so many out there...hard to choose. plus hard to get at a 1370 rose or 664 ligget

991 Urena
1288 Wallace
and a 1725 Harp sounds good.

Jim, you don't need to stop at one sprinkling, I have used the same male flower to pollinate female flowers on different plants with good success. Maybe other growers have also done multiples?? Good luck in in 2010

last year ron crossed 1068 into 1161 rodonis and ended up with a 1598 pounder. im growing this unproven seed this year and will probably bring the 901 hunt pollon into it. who knows what will be? only the shadow knows

to be honest with ya if us pumpkin growers did our job with genetics 1068 should be to old to be anything but a grampa.

yup its true,the 1068 is old scool...its back out ...time to move on to newer genetics. every body needs to do their part to advance the gene pool. we dont want this seed to be over planted and potentially set us back in the genetics game...do your part,send any and all remaining 1068 seeds to the address below. thankyou
