Jim,
It looks like great color and shape on that one! What did you pollinate it with?

Thanks guys! Doug, Spence yep it's self pollinated. The original plan was to use the 1817 McConkey for the pollinator hoping to hit the big orange lottery but I lost that plant early on so it was the logical choice.

I love telling people that this particular seed took a road trip all the way to Sue Barber's house and back. Lucky for me she decided to grow only watermelons and returned it! I named the pumpkin Sue.

Nice Jim! I was hoping it was either selfed, or pollinated by another orange producing genetic.
