From my experience with one Zehr 1061 plant in 1997, I would rate it no
better than a two.
All the pumpkins had a stem split between 70-120 pounds and died. The
plant
was not vigorous as it was one of my slowest of 12 plants. The stem
splitting
characteristic carried to the next generation (this past summer) and the
split
showed up when the pumpkins were between 200 and 300 pounds. As you can
guess,
the remaining seeds from that 1997 pumpkin which carried the splitting
characteristic were salted in the shell. :)
