I'm offering some seeds because there is no way I'll ever use them all.
I grew a symmetrical semi-flattish shaped & orange colored pumpkin from
a Brock 706.
I kept a growth chart that indicated nearly 23 pounds per day gain. In
hopes to speed things up I overfertilized when the pumpkin showed signs
of slower growth. Result - blossom end split around Aug. 18th at about
550 pounds.
The shoulders were about 7 inches thick, the blossom end tapered down to
about 2 inches.
I calculated the future of this pumpkin to probably go over 700 pounds.
The problem with the blossom end split concerns me though. If you are
interested in the seed email me for my address.
