This will be my third year trying to grow these beast, I could use a little help. I will try growing two maybe three plants. This is what I have,973.5 Rondeau / 1206 Ailts / 1432 Northrup / 1436.5 Liggett / 1546 Midthun / 1596 Wallace / 1840 Ghaye and should be getting a 270 and 533 Foss. What should I cross for biggest and best looking orange color. Thank you, Roger.

Roger, if you want to see a pretty offspring of the 270 email me. The 533 Foss will not produce an orange pumpkin.
Good luck Bill

Roger - I'm not sure about the others but I grew the 1432 Northrup from 2009 for many years and it always threw me a beauty. It is a symmetrical medium to dark orange, slightly wider than taller but always has a nice shape with fairly shallow ribs. Could also give you a HD winner. The cross was 998.5 Pukos X 1385.5 Jutras. I would grow it again if I had the seed.
