Harry, I'm a grower who tries for dark orange with good shape (see my
667lb this year-Go to Bigpumpkins.com and click on weighoffs). Then click on
Durham CT 2001 Weighoff. You will see my dark orange pumpkin with decent
shape. I would like to get some of your seeds that grew your 888 and the 888
too. Do you have any from the 962? Please let me know and I'll send some
seeds to you from mine.
Thank You,
Alan R.
