220.3 DeBacco ’13 “Snowball” (x 1676.5 Daletas)
Days old: 54

Est. weight: 813.5 pounds
Est. weight range: 742.5-884
I am getting to the point that I think I may need to start weeding around this pumpkin;-) While this plant was hit with virus a little later than some of the other plants it had the best growth rate and post infection but now seems to be the hardest hit with the virus. Even though this pumpkin will not set a new personal best for me I think this could be the “best” seed I have grown to date. I say this because of the growth rate and overall plant performance, sadly the virus has blurred the true potential in this seed for me this year, but others have proved what this seed can do. In my opinion this cross captures two of the top seed lines in one, and my 1676.5 Daletas is the reverse cross.
