Sprouting in pumpkin flesh idea


I don't know that sprouting inside the pumpkin says anything about the
genetic quality of the seed.  However, I would theorize that pumpkin flesh
should be nature's ideal medium in which to sprout pumpkin seeds.  I am
saving some frozen pumpkin flesh to experiment with to see if it would help
to facilitate seed sprouting.  I can think of several different ways to try
this.  Has anyone experimented with this before?  Any thoughts?

MB,

     Jim Kuhn's 929.2 was left in a glass case at Topsfield Fair. Almost all
the seeds sprouted. Very few seeds survived. George Lloyd grew a 906.5 and
his wife had a big one too. So the last remaining seeds can still grow a big
one!
