I got the orange side of the 1985, if she keeps up I should end up around 1200 with her.

I have a pink colored 1985 that tapes about 1355 right now. Doesn't have the greatest shape and is not a fast grower. Plant is super healthy yet and it is in my Tunnel so maybe it will grow longer. Nights consistently in the mid 40's here so there isn't much growing going on.

My 1916 was growing pretty steady, a huge plant and vines. Lost it to a blossom end pinhole around day 47 and around 350 inches. Will try grow it again next year, the pumpkin sounded extremely solid.

We lost ours today taping 1641 and growing fast. The one we lost a couple of weeks ago was even better. This pumpkin growing can be tough sometimes.Amazing seed Gary thank you and hope to see you at the big show. Stewie

The 1916 seems to produce two main shapes round or long and two main colors white or orange. The combination of these two traits you get is a roll of the dice. I know all the growers are hoping for heavy pumpkins so watch the weigh-offs for the final yields.

My 1916 went down a few days ago. Taping 1300. It was white and long,but with blossom under. It split on the bottom.Got about 100 seeds.It was selfed and it was anthesisized.The pumpkin had thick walls. Hard to tell when the bottom is beginning to soup. I think it would have at least went to the chart. Good luck to all.
