Anyone got a good pick for color? Wife would like it and it will keep me growing. I know Joe P and Bobier crosses are colorful.

Look at anything with 603 Muller in. For color/shape it is hard to beat.

Yes, 955 Brinkley was 10% heavy and it was harvested toward the beginning of September. That seed has some real potential. I grew it as an experimental plant and cut off all side vines, so it was just an 18' MV--I'm calling it "36 sq. ft. of plant" The pumpkin ended out at 395 pounds. Vine wasn't buried or anything. Wow. The Isom 395 is the 955 X 998.6. I also made the reverse cross on my Isom 900 EST that went down

Rob,

Check my diary. You're welcome to any of these once they're dry (assuming they have seeds).

571 Jepsen/Luce '01 (981 Zunino x 500 Northrup) (On 2005 Chart)
731 Jepsen/Luce '07 (500 Northrup x 981 Zunino) (-4% 2005 Chart)
853 Jepsen/Luce '07 (1370 Rose x 981 Zunino) (+9% 2005 Chart)

The 1370 was nice & orange but the other two were absolutely blazing orange.
