I was just wondering if there's any relationship between the shape of the female before pollination and its shape as it matures? All of the females on my plants are nice and round, but the 833 Ruff is the exception. Every last female is shaped more like an egg than a pumpkin and I'm curious if this has any affect on its final shape.

Thanks!!

Brian, the egg shape 833 should produce a longer fruit.

OK, so you can kind of tell what shape it will be based on the young female. Thanks for the info!
