Subject: Seeds and One ton cross colorado weight

Well Joe Scherber in Denver grew a 680 LB. pumpkin up in Denver Colorado [with good genetics], and with the one ton cross [1006x1061] seeds, I did grow one pumpkin weighing 419.6 LBS. in Colorado Springs Colorado, elevation 6,500 [Joe's elevation in Denver is 5,400] which is a new city record! The old record here was 352, so with some help from other growers around the nation, maybe others can help me challenge Denver's top dog! If ANYONE has seeds they think can help my goal of getting near a 700 LB. pumpkin, please respond to my e-mail address or this site. Most other growers with the 1006x1061 cross around the nation didn't even have as much luck getting a big pumpkin with that strain, so perhaps if someone who thinks they have a "special" strain that I can surpass 420 LBS. with, please let me know. I will be happy to pay for seeds if free seeds are unavailable!
