Started a 670.2. Weishaupl (1266.3 Jany 13 HDA X 568.8 15 HDA) 17 HDA seed. This was part of the Orange lot that I won at the German auction last winter. There is a picture on pumpkin fanatic. It looks like I am the first to grow this seed. My curiosity made me want to grow this seed just to see what kind of pumpkin I would get. I found a 10 X 20 area 200 sq. ft in my yard - it was my dumping ground in my yard where I put all my old Miracle Grow potting soil each spring over the years. The soil should have decent mineral composition. Now it's covered with creeping Charlie but a good spray down with some Borax solution should kill it before I plant this seed if it germinates. If it looks good enough to win HDA, I will take it to a weigh off. I'm glad I'm going for looks instead size where I am planting this seed.
