Recovering from back surgery so have way to much time on my hands so it's learning time. Right now the 1998 is one of my top choices for orange 2017. I know it had 4 HD's but my question is did it throw any off colors?

Just went through some diaries and see it can throw white. Sure hope my seed has the Orange gene.

10 pumpkins listed at pumpkinfanatic.com. Not a single picture. C'mon peeps,the aggc is gone, it's not that hard to submit a single pic.
I have noticed the 1495 Stelts crosses throw a good # of orange ones. Cross the 1998 with anything you grew this year, you made some stellar orange crosses.
Good luck on your recovery btw.

Had one white that started turning green... I don't think it will be a consistent orange producer

If you look at my diary from 10/13 it is the far right pumpkin in front of the house. Tom

I crossed it with the 1287 Swain which is also shown in the 10/13 diary.

Ag, I send some of my 979 Bayuk seeds with your winning bid from the Illinois auction as an extra . It is a 1998 Jutras self pollinated. I hope you have room for it. It was our sites Howard dill winner.

The one I grew last year was practically white, luck of the draw. But a great plant and went 10% heavy. Didn't take it to a GPC weigh off so didn't list it on pumpkinfanatic.
