1916 Barron has potential but I saw 2 very different Pumpkins at Frerich's this weekend. Both over chart but one orange and one more cream/green/even gray.

I have limited space in my smaller patch this year so I'm looking for something super orange.

Yes the 1317 has proven it can grow 1900+ in orange and bubba grew another orange monster off it this year. I don't know the weight yet. Haist grew a 1500+ orange beast from a 359 x self. I'd like to cross that seed with bubbas 1317 selfed this year. Just me dreaming lol

I like your thinking.
Are there any pics up yet of the Haist pumpkin(359 Foss X self)?
