Jordan..people continue to give you advice..yet you ignore what they tell you. I would be reluctant to send you any seed. Just as I said last year. You do your homework and footwork. I will help you with the seed you desire. Every seed has the potential to produce a huge pumpkin if the conditions it is grown in are ideal. From your postings I see plants that are growing in weed beds so thick they put my pasture to shame. Some growers insist we are being hard
on you. There is a reason for this. You seemed determined to grow a big pumpkin, have a never give up spirit. Although a single seed will not help you achieve this, until you have set things in place to grow a pumpkin. Do you have what it takes? willing to do the work and keep up with it. No excuses. I am not a heavy hitter,never broken a 1000lbs. I have to much tied up in other things to concentrate on giants. But I do give my giants what it takes to grow.

Jordan,

This year I grew a 616 Bosworth (1354 Checkon x 1469 Checkon) and a 333 Bosworth (1469 Checkon x 1354 Checkon). These crosses are 100% pure, protected pollinated crosses so you are growing 100% what my cross says it is, so no need to worry on that part. You cant get any closer then this unless you find a selfed 1354.
The 1354 and the 1469 is still going to be a tough seed to find for even me and will probably buy mine at a club auction this year to find mine to grow.(wont be cheap unless I get really lucky) Ill be happy to send you some seeds from these crosses Jordan, email me.

Jordan,
If I'm not mistaken, the 333 Bosworth would be 3/4 1354 Checkon genes. A nice crossback Brooks.
