What do you have going and what crosses did you make?
I have 1576.5 LaRiviere x self, 1501 VW x 920 Cooper and 920 Cooper x 1576.5 LaRiviere but the Cooper plant is getting minimal care due others and crazy weather trying to keep up. Sorry Brett

I have a 1937 Werner X self going at 10 DAP. Two backups on the same plant of self and 1937X1933.5 Stelts.

1933.5 plant is around for breeding purposes but I've not been able to get a pollination on it (one last shot). Have had a friend use it to pollinate two flowers on his 1878 Leer.

I’m growing the 2152 Ganter, plan was to Self the plant but I have no males my fault so I’m using the 1878.5 Leer as the pollinator. Hopefully orange x orange equals orange.

2152 Gantner x 2416.5 Haist in 150 patch
1567 Gantner x self

Both pumpkins are young, but both are far darker yellow than my 1337, so I'm hoping for orange on both. I too, wanted to self the 2152, but went with the best males available.

I finally got an orange one pollinated today. It was my 1047.5 McWilliams (359 Foss x self) and crossed with a 1200 Engel. I have been using 1200's to pollinate a 1293 Witter-Benson (2145x self, 18% heavy). Trying to get the orange color into big and heavy genetics. I will be self pollinating some 1200 Engels and crossing the 1047.5 into a 1200.

I have 2 2152 Gantner x self, one at 18 DAP & the other at 7 DAP.
I have 2 681 Gansert x self, one at 23 DAP (already a deep golden color) & another one I want for backup is only 3 DAP.
I am still trying to get pollination on the 1157 Zaychowski.

2255 Zaychkowsky looks to have inherited the 1495 Stelts colour bred into the 2145.5 McMullen seed. Going to be a dappled orange beauty.

I’ve got a gem on my 735 and I crossed it with the 811 so that should be nice.

Very orange on my 1989.5 daletas.

Pollinated 495.2 Ressler with 1875 Mendi. Hopefully the 2145 genes in the 1875 Mendi will turn this into a big orange pumpkin.

Pollinated 1875 Leer X Self. Big orange grow monster. Running over other plants. Too bad I am a month behind with this pollination.

My 1937 Werner X self is at 45 days. Started turning orange about at 30 but is lighter than I was hoping for (very creamy still, nicely striped). My 1933.5 Stelts X 1937 is just over 30 days and still looking albino.
