Also having trouble holding my 781.5 Frantz due to a sap leakage that  rotted 
into the pumpkin a tad....been using hair dryer on it...but we're in for  
some rain and cold weather, so I'm crossing my fingers...high of 45 on  Monday!
 
As for the cross...to be honest...I can't remember which 781.5 Frantz I  
crossed it with.  I'm guessing it was the big one as that plant was closer  ;-).
 
Also some nice pictures of your patch!  
Take care and good luck!

Hi  Dave,

Wow! it looks like you are having one heck of a  year!
Congratulations.  Global warming has helped me out too  this
year and I have three out of four pumpkins now taping  over
1,000.  The warmer weather sure seems to help.

My 670  Daigle is the biggest. (about 379 OTT)  I thought I was
going to lose  it to a split at a dill ring/rib line but the
skin just cracked and it  never went through.  I think because
the shell is so  thick...

On your 670 Daigle, did you cross it with 781.5 Frantz number  1
or your 781.5 Frantz number 2 plant??

Sure like to see some  pictures of your fruit.  For some new
shots from my patch go  to:

Grow them big and orange  and best of luck,

vince
