Hi George,

I was wondering how you made out this year with your 1020 Papez seed?  Earlier in the season you had put out an email that you had a good pumpkin growing on that plant.  I was wondering if it ever turned into a 'big' pumpkin? 

Also, are there any other growers out there that grew the 1020 Papez with any success (ie: pumpkin over 850lbs or more?)?
 
Thanks,

I lost all my plants to an unknown disease or soil insect/disease.  At the end of the season in November I will post pictures & possible causes as well as my plan of attack next year.  If it doesn't work I may have to stop growing for a couple of years.  This disorder has been seen by a few other growers and may be of concern to others.  The Papez plant resisted longer than any of the others and was a perfect vine and plant before it hit.
