I'm just learning about seeds and there past results. 1 question I have is,
you see a great seed like Mombert 567.5. Many large pumpkins have come from
this seed .But say a grower had a bad season and it only produce a 400 lbs.
due to weather. Is this seed still worth acquiring, or is it waste of time,
since the genes may be damage.

Tom,
Seeds from a 400 pounder that has a good genetic background could
definitely produce a big pumpkin. Actually, it is more common that a seed from
a 900 or 1,000 pounder is a bust the following year.
