I don't want to mortgage the house for a McMullen this year.
Does anybody know of any promising McMullen crosses that might be available at auctions this year?

dguyh,
I am offering a 2145.5 x 2009 cross seed with WGPG membership ($25) (first 100 requests)
This seed is coming from a great plant & shaped pumpkin that was growing great, reaching 302" OTT by day 30!
The extreme heat I experienced stopped its growth and I harvested healthy seeds on day 36.
I have also included this seed for several auctions.
I am planning to grow 1 or 2 of these next season.
Those great crosses mentioned above should go for over $100
The 302D30 Barlow may be an affordable option, plus as a WGPG member you get other benefits :)

1392 Carlson/Peterson X 2145 McMullen dynamite cross in my opinion. The 1392 which went 26% heavy is a 1625 Gantner X 2009 Wallace. The 2145 is the 1756 Howell/Jolivette X 1625 Gantner if this cross hits look out. This cross is 2016 Vincent 1,834.5 9% heavy planted in marginal soil with amendments and very good care. Another great cross is the 1338 Martin by 2145 McMullen I lost the pumpkin on September 9 to a rot Spot that went about ten inches deep. At that time it was taping 443 for 1727 and had pretty nice thick walls.

1937 Urena which is 2145x2230, The 1937 was 15% heavy. He lost the 2230 to a soft spot on the bottom. The 2230 was over 200 pounds over chart. This is a great cross with great potential. Leonardo had rotten weather early in the season. With decent weather it should have topped 2000 pounds.

I will be growing the 1795.5 McCracken. 2145 x 1625 and 100% organic. +17%. I'm not expecting much orange out of this one though.
