I am going to talk a bit about why I chose the seeds I bought.
The 1776 because in it's background it has 12 (or so) 2500+ pumpkins??
As well as ar least 7-10 WRs and it proved itself stress tolerant also nearly all of the pumpkins in it's background are NOT DMG and if the ones that are they usually split at the end of the season.
The second pumpkin the 2097
It has fairly good genes but what was amazing was that both parents were gaining 51-56 pounds a day for A MONTH STRAIGHT??And we're both around 2000 pounds at day ~54 but the only downside is that both parents split around then??But it cold have been caused by environmental fluctuations in water/temperature.
