1161 Rodonis seems to go heavy.If I had both of these 2 seed that's what I would do,and Rodonis as the male.

Slim, now that is some Slim pickins. That Rodonis seed is few and far between, mostly on the few side.

How about 2009 x self v.s. 2009 x 220? Those are the two seeds that I plan to grow this year. Thanks.

selfing can be really good or really bad.its your roll of the dice. 1317 X 2009 & vice versa looks good!Thats one I will be making in 2014

Ashton I read on here at one point someone said stop all the inbreeding,but I would self the 220 and cross the 2009 x 220.Thats just me though.Myself I don't have access to those seed so Im going with 1479 Parenty ,1674.5 Connolly 1030 May and 1220.5 Johnson as the male .Good luck to ya,I know you will make the right decision.

Ashton if you grow both 2009 and 220.3 consider selfing the best plant and use that plant to pollinate the other.

I'm with Chris. Cross with a 1495 if you can find the pollen.

I am going to try 454 LaRiviere = 220,3 DeBacco x 2009 wallace
with 1723 Marshall DMG = 1634 Werner x Self.Both way's.Any meanings about that choice? Thanks.

i think the 1623 wallace crossed into the 2009 and reversed would be a good cross. plenty of stelts genetics in the 1623 so i would not be afraid of creating the elephant man pumpkin.those are my two crosses for this year.

id keep both plants a minimum of 850 sq ft.allow the 1623 to grow even longer to help prevent splitting.(keep two sets sides- before the fruit and off the main- growing thru the season or until growts reduces to 15 per day)
personally ron and i believe the 1623 can do great things.

only time and the weather can tell.
