Re: Overlooked seeds ?
Yes, George, the 642 Glasier is an excellente seed.
A friend of mine, a beginner, grown a 389 lbs pumpkin
from this seed, in a very reduced space, say 200 sq ft.
Surely, with more space, cares and fertilization, an
800+ lbs pumpkin can be obtained from the 642.
The 791 Glasier 98, 567.5 x 567.5, is also an
overlooked seed. In my first year, I grown 3 pumpkins
in the same plant, with estimated weights of 350, 350
and 400. I culled the first two, and a neighbor's horse
"culled" the 3rd... Good seeds, and many mistakes.
