Paul's 906 and 833 were both very heavy for their size. I inquired in
the winter with the LaRue's about Paul's seed as I did
not know how to reach him directly. I was told there were few seeds
harvested from those pumpkins. As you know there was a great deal of
demand for those seeds as well from all over the country. I was hoping
there would be some available from the PNWGPG seed plan but no such
luck. I considered asking Paul about them at the meeting in Auburn, but
he had to leave early. I received so many good seeds already I would
feel greedy if I tried to get more. As it is I can only grow two plants
in the space I have. I know there were door prizes of the Stellpflug
seed which grew his pumpkins but I wasn't one of the winners. It will
be interesting to see how your crosses work out. Maybe I can arrange to
visit your patch sometime during the season.
