here are Timmer's 604 jutras pumpkins. he has decided to keep all 3 for genetic pumpkins and halloweenies. this is the plant that he couldn't get one set on with the heat and we laid down thick shag carpeting from the garbage directly on the driveway. we covered the carpeting with 8 inches of manure and let the plant grow out and all 3 of these pumpkins are in the middle of my backup area on the driveway. i can not tell him what to do and he wants to keep all 3 on this plant and is not worried about weight. they are all identical in shape and color and should be nice and orange when mature. one is the 604 x 1225.4 and the other 2 are crossed with my 885 shenoha #1 plant which Noah is on. I like the crosses for orange x big. if we can get all pumpkins to maturity our crosses this year will be the 1446 eaton x self, 1225.4 jutras x 604 jutras, the 604 jutras x the 1225.4 jutras, the 885 shenoha #1 x self, the shenoha 885 #2 sibbed, 2 of the 604 jutras x 885 shenoha #1, and the 905 ailts x self.
