Re: common sense 1-i-b-4



   Please let me ask a few questions on this subject !!
 Say Someone self pollinated the 801.5 Stelts and that pumpkin weighed 
between 500 and 900 lb. would that make the seeds of the same WORTH for giant 
pumpkins or would it simply be a seed with the potential to eventually put 
off a big one like so many other seeds.
   Another Question is it seems to me at some point if we took the seeds from 
1000+ LB pumpkins and crossed them we have a better chance to break all 
records currently held, because they hold the genes that can grow a BIG one. 
All the speculation is gone (the mother and father each over 1000lbs) it has 
been done and looks like if you use those seeds it can be done again.
     But that is TOOOOOO OBVIOUS and I'm sure has been tried a thousand 
times. Why does this not work ?????
     Well, there are my Quick little questions.
   Thank you all........  And yes I have NO Idea what I am talking about so 
please help me learn!!!!
