I got a 734 out of it. Easy plant to care for but never had huge gains.

Did you grow it titanic? What were your results with it.

I grew one, a very small plant with a nice 402 lbs very orange nicely shaped pumpkin that went 11% heavy.

Another local grower grew it and had another very orange and round pumpkin that came in at 839 lbs and was 19% heavy.

Not dissapointed at all...

I didn't grow it but have one, good thing I didn't grow it because I lost all 3 plants this year to soil disease. It is probably 1st seed in ground next april pending what I get in off season. I don't mean any disrespect to the seed, it's better than anything I"ve created, (pb 1365 with 6 viable seeds), I just figured it would be heavily planted and expected some kins at least over 1000 lbs. Glad to hear it's throwing heavy but I don't put a lot of stock in % heavy on pumpkins under 1K. Will it still go heavy at 420 ott?

titanic, have a look on the GPC results in Ontario, there were a few others weighed including an 1163 that also went 12% heavy. Interestingly, I noticed that the 1381 Delaney seed well at the scales in Ontario.

I grew the 1684. Grew 8% heavy at 1290 pounds. New PB over last years 594. No complaints on my side, no stump rot, plant grew strong all the way into October.

I spoke with a grower out of Oregon who grew a PB at 1250 and went 9% heavy.
