just me. K yesterdays question was the largest not grown kin. Answer 1951 brungard. But it appears there was a reverse cross of 1951 wjich was grown. The data is a little wanky but I think the is actually the reverse of the 1951. And the 1951 was pollinated by the 1333 brungard not the 1753...

Game over. Rick has it.

A little history, the 1806 had no seeds. So this 2009x2009 will not be planted anytime soon. Sounds like it was a good one though. Rick, please let me know if any of the seeds I listed previously or mentioned adding to the pool are of interest to you...? Im getting too busy now but I will probably come up with some even more challenging and more useful trivia later this year, when I take some time to sit down and crunch pumpkin data.

Pumpkin school is over... Have a great summer!
