I have one 922.5Emmons seed here right now mate!

I grew the 922.5 this year and the seeds from my own
pumpkin even split (565White03)....

Anyway...the actual 922.5 seed is very pale cream
color, perfectly oval shaped with a slightly course
skin just like fine sandpaper.
Hope this helps...

I got both of my seeds directly from Geneva so I'm sure
it's the right one.

The offspring seeds of the 922.5 were totally different...
They are brownish, very smooth and most of them cracked
down the middle.

I'm with Gordon... GO UTES!

I think the description you give is good, but I had two
of these seeds, and each was a little different. The
second one that I have is a little lighter and smaller.
I still have one...

When I tried growing it, the fruit didn't split, it
melted!

Look in August 2003.
