BigWheels,
I'm not aware of any big fruit grown off this seed. A first year grower did bring a 320 pound pumpkin, grown off the 975, to the Clarence, NY weighoff last fall. It had a very nice dark orange color, but was about 125+ pounds under the estimated weight... Joe P.

Yo Alun,
You're right, officially it's the 972, it was weighed 975 with the tarp.. Joe P.
