But have committed to keeping things updated for the 2026 season! Was very excited to come in 19th for Master Gardener in 2025 and hope to better my score for 2026. My lineup this year is to do a giant squash in my main patch, two pumpkins in my secondary patches, a long gourd (broke the BC record last year with a 129.5" and raised my trellis this year to try and break my own record), bushel gourd, field pumpkin, marrow and giant tomato - that'll give me a couple of redundancies in case something fails. For seeds, I have: Pumpkin: 1933.5 Caspers 2024 2387 Daletas 2024 1243 Pelletier 2025 (2610.3 Petrelli 2023 x self) Squash 1592 Tobeck 2023 2030 Tobeck 2021 434 Pelletier 2025 (1592 Tobeck 2023 x 1415 Jolivette 2024) Long Gourd 152.5 Yohe 2021 129.5 Pelletier 2025 (150 Faust 2024 x sib) Bushel Gourd 219 Pelletier 2019 Field Pumpkin 120 Pelletier 2025 Marrow 162.5 Whitty DMG 2025 69 Whitty 2025 82 Pelletier 2025 Tomato 10.2 Jolivette 2024 7.19 Tobeck 2021 7.69 Clayton 2023 8.36 Strickler 22021 Happy to have a 100% germination this year.
