I have a 1622 Liggett( 1725 Harp x 664.5 Liggett) that was a squash-kin the one offspring that I can find a picture for is 1494 Bordsen 2011 which was a squash-kin also. So if i use it to pollinate a squash and pollinate it with a squash, what would the offspring be? Would they be a mix or pure squash? There was one 175 Vanderpool I cant find info on maybe sirpumkin can tell me if it was green or not. Thanks Dan

Sorry but I don't see any squash in the 1622 or 1494. Maybe I'm misreading your post

They are both pumpkins. If it has orange on it it's a pumpkin. Many pumpkins will have some green. If you cross either of the two you mentioned with a squash I'm quite sure you would get a pumpkin.
