The 1501 VW - I screwed up this plant when it was young, and badly. Lesson learned, but although it pulled out of its funk it never totally recovered 100%. Around pollination time, I estimated the potential of the plant to be able to produce a couple in the 6-800# range based on the way the plant looked. Boy, was I wrong - this plant just really wanted to grow pumpkins. The birdbath - 992 Wolf (1501 x 2145) - was grown on a secondary, and the one on the right - 1177 Wolf (1501 x 1229 Seelow) was grown on the main. The 1177 came in 3rd in votes for HD at the Saratoga weighoff against some stiff competition.
