Re: Seed Info Wanted ----
Alan ... as Rocky lists... the 625 Kennedy was from the 779.5 Bobier...
this pumpkin (Wayne's 625) had very good orange color and great shape
too... a good picture of this is on Mike N's web page - I wanted to
mention to the group that I started this seed late as a backup -- and
the 625 turned out to be a very nice young plant -- huge main vine --
and very huge leaves as well.. I really thought this seed might produce
a nice colored fruit etc.... but I wasn't able to keep the plant... (a
Mombert 937 is working out nice -- and I'm letting this one go as my
main plant ((60 or so pounder going currently)) --- anyway --- Hackney
mentioned recently that the backup plants might surprise you and
sometimes and turn out to be the better one --- I'll sure be keeping the
625 in mind next go'round ... I'd say plant or strongly consider trying
the 625 if you have it...
Best of luck to all this year... Tim, Florida.. just NW of Key West..
ps... 649 Holland '97 ... (697X567.5) --- produced Joel's 750 in 98
