15 plants for Kevin Heap who grows pumpkins commercially in the area. 929 krueger, 1082 krueger, and 988 janowiak sprouts were started on last saturday night and 5 days later looked like this last night when he brought me a case of cold budwesisers and talked pumpkins for an hour. he is a good dude. thanks for the cold ones kevin and a promise of a pumpkin for mom this fall. we as a club will also get some seeds hopefully from the selfed pumpkins from best for color and shine. with 15 plants and these genetics, one of them is bound to throw out similar to the 929 and 1010 last year. i got 15 more started last night to go to another commercial grower and so with 30 plants commercially, odds are in our favor to get a selfed beauty and repeat the process over the years and try to further isolate the genetics for consistancy. after these pop i will start 8 more to give to friends on memerial day weekend. Johnny Appleseed ain't got nothin' on Shazzy Pumpkinseed..lol.
