Well Will say that as far as AG's go I didnt get the weights I had been hoping for But I think I created a few encouraging crosses. Something I hadnt even thought would happen this year for did and it really made up for not acheiving the AG weights and that was getting the Washington State record field pumpkin at 119 pounds off of my own seed (the 79 Barker 142 McInnis x 119 Starr) it went 8% heavey. All my AG's grown at my place was no less than 19% heavey.
910.5 Barker 1421 Checkon x 1421.5 Stelts) *22%
905 Barker 1401 Urena 10 x 1272 Barker) + 19%
922 Barker 1495 Stelts x 1272 Barker) + 19%
100.5 Barker F.P. 162 B MacKinnon x 79 Barker) 7% heavey
119 Barker FP (79 Barker x 162 B MacKinnon Wa. St Record Kin. +8% heavy
Got to go to the Half moon Bay weigh off which was VERY exciting. Then a stop by Leonardo Urenas place on our way back. So any way A lot was learned this year and as much as I hate saying "next year" I am really looking forward to it. Dont know that I would get to but to go on one of the pumpkin cruises would be a good start. Pics coming soon
