Pumpkin A & B = C


Hi All.  Someone please tell me if i'm wrong?

1) The effect of cross pollinating will be seen in the seed's of the pumpkin 
and not the pumpkin of that year. I know this is fact, not a theory.

2) Then if pumpkin A is the male and weigh's 500 pounds and is crossed with 
pumpkin B which is the female and also weigh's 500 pounds then the resulting 
pumpkin C is the result of the cross pollination?

3) I say NO WAY!!  So when one scramble's to get the parent's of pumpkin C, 
they should be more interested in the female rather than the male? 

4) Cross pollinating is only done to try to produce quality seed's?

 Any comment's?
