Re: Oregon Update Replied


Brett..thanks for the updates...I find them informative and a great 
motivation.(not to mention good dream material).One way people learn about 
growing or selecting seeds is by following proven growers and asking 
questions.You are now arguably a HEAVY HITTER in this hobby  and I have a 
question  for you....I am curious why you selected your 688 as a candidate 
for you patch next year over your 720 which grew it. The 720 performed 
admirably agains same climate contestants(Pappas took 2nd,I took second at 
our weighoffs with it) and showed a consistancy in weighing heavy.I know you 
grew the 720 to 688lbs,weighing in heavy,in a test patch that was small and 
I'm sure less cared for than some others.Your 688 is listed as open 
pollinated also. I am not asking "Why are you growing the 688 over the 
720!!!??? But,Why are you growing the 688 over the 720?    Teach me Oh Great 
Pumpkinguru....what are the thought processes here...?....................G
