Scott:
I have the 743.2 Growning in my patch. 3 pumpkins going on it. They all have
similar look, long with the blossom sticking out as you describe. None are
very large (100-150#). I had some weather damage and it split my main vine,
and I lost 2 front runners early on. These I am growing for genetic crosses
as I am hopeful the Mombert 567.5 parentage will come out in future
generations. I would be interested in knowing the OTT and age for comparison
to mine. THey are growing 5-10# daily depending on weather. Yesterdays OTT
175, 182, 195.
