Looking back at my notes, here are my crosses on what I have growing: 1083 Jensen female x 1068 Foss, this one has the abnormal blossom end. Pumpkin is tear drop shaped, with a narrow stem end, and a big blossom end. Weird looking. Pollinated July 11. 1068 Foss female x 1083 Jensen pollinated July 5th. Big and impressive thus far. I have to find time to cut some anchor roots to relieve stress on the stem. The last is an 804 Kurilich female x 1083 Jensen. Wonderful shape, growing fast, and already a pretty color. Should be a nice orange when it is fully mature. Plants are growing into each other, and are overtaking my corn, peppers, tomatoes, and cukes. Too busy with wheat harvest to find time to trim everything back.
