Mike, if it turns out that you can't arrange a trade with Drew, he was kind enough to offer a seed from the 1058.8 to the GVGO seed raffle. So, you could win one! :-)

By the way, you may notice that the pumpkin in the GVGO logo is suspiciously shaped just like the 1058.8. That's because I modelled it from a photo that I took at the Niagara weigh-off last year.

The 1005 Miller '04 is the seed you are looking for. 723 Bobier x 898 Knauss grown by Gary Miller of Napa, CA. I beileve that it grew three over 1000 pounds this year. I asked Gary about getting a seed from his 1005 when I saw him at Elk Grove in October. He said that he had them "somewhere." I don't know how to get ahold of Gary, but Jose Ceja (Jose on bigpumpkins.com) could probably help you find him.
