Anybody grow this seed? I was contemplating on growing it but I would like to see what the offspring was like first.
Thanks

Al Berard grow the 702 Berard from it in 2007, but there was no picture at aggc.org

I'm thinking the 1016 pollinator for the 892 might have been the plant that produced the 730 Dill,same year...

Michael, the 892 is an underplanted seed. For reasons that escape me, it didn't catch on. Genetically speaking, it's a Cadillac and deserves attention. I don't know if I'll plant it this year but I'm going to get a few for down the road for sure.

Hi Michael.
Try www.pumpkinlink.com. If your seed is known, it should be in there.
I,m looking at the 925 Lyons,and possibly the 1264 Ghaye,or maybe your own 936 as pollinator, or whatever I can find in the auctions over the next few days.
Let the competition begin

Hi. Try me on; kimoanoy@iol.ie .
I got one of your seeds from EGVGA and it looks quite good pedigree--Ha Ha. I,m pretty fixed on the 925 Lyons as the female, but am really totally undecided on the Male. Depends on what becomes available over the next few weeks. I,m not going to spend crazy money on seeds, so I presume I,ll not get " the best", but such is life.
How's the others doing?
