My name is Glenn...this is my second year growing.My largest was in my first
year of 418lbs.It is my only so far.Take this advice /info accordingly.Nic
Welty grows a lot of squash...a typical squash is green to blue in the
stellpflug lines.Blue is not an uncommon pigment in AG's.I have a white-cream
colored pumpkin with blueish patches -on my 1010 MacKenzie plant.It has
recently developed this coloration along with some orange and i consider it
due to maturation.It started to show up at around 570lbs.
My stelpflug 738 fruit is blueish green colored squash at around
480lbs...its been blueish green since about 350lbs.
What color was your pumpkin before it showed blue and what plant is it on?
