I was given a Lloyd 900. I tried to search this site but couldn't tame the search engine. Can anyone give me some information on it; I have also a Davies 803.4 (845 Bobier F/922.5 Emmons M) and an Atlantic Giant.

Any thoughts out there as to which I should use for F and which for M for growing here in Southern New England?

There is no record on the AGGC data base for the 900 Lloyd. The 803.4 Davies is for me one of the most interesting crosses out there. The pumpkin was grown in MA, 4 % over, grown in 500 sq ft, pollinated on 7/13, blocky and orange with some green ribs, if the pictures are faithful.
If its cross has got the best of the parents, hs to be awesome, but it also could get the bad characteristics...

It was grown in the next town over from me, and my sister in law, who knows Davies, got me four seeds for my birthday. I will go with it.

Additionally, I will check on my Lloyd 900 and see if maybe they got the number wrong.
