Re: Lloyd 935

The 935 Lloyd that I grew this year sounds similar to yours. For awhile, I
was not sure if it was going to be considered a pumpkin or a squash. The
largest pumpkin on my 935 Lloyd was estimated to weigh 300+ pounds and it
started to turn orange during the last few weeks. The pumpkins on the
plant grew very slowly and most of them were not very big. The pumpkins
were difficult to pick up as they were very slippery and seemed extremely
heavy for their size. I have not opened one to see how thick the walls might be.
