Out of the 4 seeds requested I only need one more.

the 842.0 Eaton '02

Any one that has an extra e-mail me. I have great seeds to trade and don't mind a couple good ones for this seed.

Thanks to all who helped me get the other seeds.

Any 941 Eatons, 914 Weirs, 990 Baxs, 910 Nelsons, 968 Sproules, 920 Coles, 900.5 Lyons, 871 Richart or 827 Hollands to trade for the 842 and/or even maybe a 783? I may be pursuaded to relinquish them. BF

hey giant, why do you want the 842 now? i'm sure there are many other 846x723 crosses or vice versa out there now...and somebody has an older seed stock eh snake oil, did my seeds germinate, i guess not, you never did answer my email

the old seed stock can only be used for crosses if they germinate, but they are no longer competitive

Jammerama, sorry, I don't recall your email. Though I am known for returning them late. I grow commercially too. So I spend a lot of time in the field and not on the computer.
As a matter of fact, no, I tried two and neither germed. But, I will try again this next season. Like the cross, BF

i tried a bunch of 832's and none germinated so it's pretty safe to say that most are dead, I'll go through my seeds and see what other old ones i have for you if you're interested

my parents have chucked all my old seeds except for seeds from a 400lb squash i grew in '96. it's a 633.5*cormack x 900.5*Lyons. the 900.5 lyons pollinator plant grew a ~700lb pumpkin that could've gone over 800 if it had been pollinated earlier(it was pollinated august 3).
