I will attest to that seems like some genetic lines set out a killer most
agressive plant then pop just an average pumpkin.....the 1006 was the
opposite way i almost pulled it out because it was so slow...and small yet
it grew the biggest pumpkin...the 697 has reports like this too big leaves
slow....probably bail on it......its just like this game you think you have
a clue then there 10 examples the other way........keeps everyone on the
same playing ground...who knows?? Seems like all you an do is follow your
instincts and be there with all the cultural tricks you know and hope for
the best......sooner or later you hit!!!!!!!...brock
