Is the 1872 willemijns that grew the 2,063.50 also the pollinator of the other 3 big ones?
Was the 2145 that grew the record the pollinator of the 2063.5 from the 1872 willemijns ?

Thanks in advance

Do you mean did the same 1872 plant provide the pollen for all the Willemijns pumpkins?

And if the same 2145 plant was involved in growing the 2624.6 and 2063.5?

I would contact Dutch Brad directly. He has contacts everywhere in Europe.

That's correct guys! The 2624 is grown on 2145 and the pollen are from 1872 (that grew 2063 this year). We also made the reverse cross. The 1872 was the fastest growing plant in our patch with huge vines and tap roots. The most potential seed from our season in 2015 (in our eyes).
