Huh?! But that doesn't make sense....
The 1061 is the 975 x 804. It was grown from a seed out of the 975 pumpkin
(which had the father of the 923 Brown), then was grown and pollinated with
the 804. SO the seed from the 1061 is made up of the 975 x 804. (Am I
wrong?!) Now in order for a seed to be 1061 x 1061, the seed from the 1061
would be planted and selfed. So my question is what was the weight of the
pumpkin that resulted from the planted 1061 seed which contained the 1061 x
1061 seeds which you are growing?
