Thanks guys.
Dave, Roy wants to grow a super Jack-o-lantern size down in the marsh next year. Most will be open pollinated feild grown AGP's but it will be neat to have a few hybrids too. I am worried about how hardy the agp's will be given the mould problem they sometimes have. Good to have a backup.

Back in 1995 I used Mombert 567.5 males to pollinate females on a Butternut Squash. The cross was protected and i have got the seeds SOMEWHERE and will take a look. I wonder what the outcome would be with the above cross ??

Mike, I would like to try them out. Sounds like a neat cross. We could call it a "Butkin".........

My 208 Little is (1/4 BM and 3/4 AG)...it has 2 years of 940 Mombert 1998 pollinator traits in it.
Produces beautiful orange porch-sitters. I crossed it with the 940 Mombert 2000 this year....the color continues.

Russ...there's a couple pics of the 208 fruit towards the end of my 2004 diary. Take a look, you won't be dissapointed.

No Place Special

How about a 208 Little (as mentioned above) crossed with 869.5 Calai (that grew my beautiful 1125)???
