I think I would choose d) Connecticut field because I don't know what the pollinator for the 846 grew so I wouldn't plant it....

You did not ask about the 807 or 538?

I would grow the 736 since it went 4% heavy and the pollinator grew a 510 on about 200 sq ft of plant that was very orange as compared to most Lloyd fruits with this lineage. Of course Im not at all partial. Hope we get some seeds, the fruit is still on display and yet to be opened.

the 736 sounds pretty promising, especially for you David, in that if she's a good one and it probably will be, you'll be able to hold hundreds of them in your hands!

I grew the 538 Wells a 846 remake. The plant was the biggest and most agressive plant for vine size and leaf size. It had 5 pumpkins on it ranging from the mid 600's to the mid 400's the the two pumpkins that where weighed went very heavy.I think that Bob Wells grew his peronal best of 790 and it went heavy to great seed. mark
