I grew the 1610 and selfed it. She is a nice dark orange and would have made a fine Dill award contender until she developed a rib split that I am attempting to control. I am guessing the judges take off points for splits.

I grew a 1610. It was a smaller fruit. It wasn't orange at all. It was yellow with some green on it.

I grew a 1610 x self, bright orange. Fruit went down on a rib split late august, final weight was 1213 lbs. Photo in diary.
Scientific fact: pollination has no effect on fruit color.
This is not to be confused with corn...pollination does affect kernel color. Keep in mind that a kernel is a seed, not a pumpkin shell.
