This Picture is of my 833 hoffman 06 plant that I grew in 2007. The stump ended up being 12" caliper; however the pumpkin that I choose was self pollinated on the back main. This season I will grow this seed again and will take a shot at growing one at ideally 10-19 ft. out.
C.R.B. Pumpkins emailed me and I remembered that I have a seed from his 1184 Barker 08. I hope to let it see dirt this year. I think its the 1631.5 Mckie x 1689 Jutras cross. I also ordered from the PNWGPG Auction the 1055 Jutras 08 and the 1184 Hunt 08 both are (1689 Jutras x 1631.5 Mckie). Looks like I have got the full cross and reverse cross for this season.
To bad Don's 1662 didn't have any seeds in it. He is a really awesome grower and i'd like to grow one of his giants some day also. I took 2 pages of notes from him at our spring meeting last year.
MANURE MOVER had better be growin' my 890 this year or there's gonna be a tussle,(j/k).
Shout out and thanks to the Wiz for sending MANURE MAN the totally Righteous seeds. The 895 Grande looks mighty mighty enticing...
Big Up in '09
