Hey Guy's & Gal's:
Let's get back to reality, if it doesn't make the weighoff, its not official, it's like the
fish that got away. We all seem to be honing in on a maybe & forgetting the ones that are
going the route. I myself, am growing both this year, 926 maybe, 914 official, no comparison,
the unofficial is just that, a maybe, the official is doing well at the present time.
Let's give credit to the ones that credit is due to, weighed off , not the ones that might
have made it if something had been different, there are thousands of them in North America that
we never hear about because that is the difference between Champion & maybe.
Don't get me wrong, the 825.5 grows big pumpkins, I have the seed but am to chicken to
try it, as most have not made a weighoff to my knowledge, they were big though, my 926 is the
second generation of this seed.
Last year we heard the same story from Ontario, I think it was a lady, big pumpkins that never
are there in the end.
Let's wait for the weighoff's and then we know which seed we should be seeking. Just my opinion.
Thanks,
Bill Van Iderstine
Personal Best 862
