I opened up my 842 Steil 2011 which is the 980 Steil x 1810.5 Stevens (Chad Revier's Plant) and was suprised at the multi-colored seeds. I have had white seeds before and brown seeds before and brown seeds that had undeveloped white tips on them but these seeds are actually white and brown and are fully developed. Some were actually starting to grow.

The 980 had huge brown seeds so it must be the 1810.5 that gave them color mixture. The pumpkin was grown on less than 250 sq ft of plant because of the hail, it went 6% heavy so not all bad when you take into account the year we had here. Thought it was kind of interesting though.
