The 1502 Wallace, and how hard would it be for a 2nd year grower to get ahold of a couple? Money?

1068 Wallace, poll'd by the 1354 Checkon.

look at the front page of this website---
a huge link to pics of the 1502 and others being weighed...
i do not know about an actual diary, other than those and
TUG (The Unknown Growers)' diary...

depending on the auction, you will need
probably at LEAST 400 dollars on-tap!

And if they don't germinate? Wow!

I look at it this way, if it dont germinate , 4 months would have already passed that I payed that much for a seed. So since my memory is bad anyway, I forget all about how much money I payed for it. Ha!!!

The 1502 has been selling at auction. Like Eric said - up to $400 which is unheard of for a seed that has never been grown. LOL

No one bothered to answer the question.

1502 Wallace '06 (1068 Wallace '03 x 1354 Chekon)
1068 Wallace (845 Bobier '00 UOW x 898 Knauss '01)

Herbie,

If they don't germninate? You're bummin'! Dick gave me some 1068s a few years ago before they were seliing for $850. My last one failed to germinate in '05.

Whether a gift, a trade or an auction purchase; some seeds just don't germinate.

Herbie, check those seeds in your pocket, the genetics are very close to the 1068. You can help make it the next hot seed.

Thanks Bill, and thanks again for the seeds. Which one is close to the 1502 Bill? You have Bobier in most of them.

Maybe put North Dakota on the pumpkin map? Next year.

Wow on selling the seeds for $400. What would a typical monster like that yield for viable seed count? 400?

LOL. A typical 1500 lb monster. Sorry, that did sound dumb.
