Being a second year grower maybe you can help me
out on a genetic question. If two growers grow the same seed and pollinate
with the same cross and their weights substantially vary due to some growing
practice what makes the larger pumpkins seeds more desirable than the smaller
one. If Howard Dill and I both plant the Checkon 835 and cross it with the
Rockwell 771.6. I know Howard may get a Dill 990 and I would have a
Sandercock 202 but wouldn't the seeds from those pumpkins have an equal chance
to pop a big one with their identical genetic background?
