798.5 Calia X 736.5 Welty 45days
Pollinated7/2 Picked 8/14 45 days old
Nice shape and size, orange in color,
Small stem Split. I Pick it to show my Grampa. Was
going to take the 600 Kurilich witch had a bad split
but it rotted before I got it there. He's not doing
well and my pumpkins seems to lift his spirts. so I
had to pick it earlier than I wanted. Grampa's more
important.
