I was wondering what the color, or other information on seeds that are sibbed or selfed of the famous 567.5 Mombert.

My 171 Rahe 06 is the 878 Wilson 98 selfed.
I also crossed a Cinderella pumpkin with the 878 Wilson.
I can say the 878 Wilson plant was my only AG plant that didn't abort it's fruit that year

I grew a 518 Orchard 98 in 2006. The 518 is 567.5 Mombert 92 x self. The result was 435 Hoffman 06 and was grown on less than 100 sq ft of buried vine.

In 1998 Pete Glasier grew an 823 lb. pumpkin that was 567.5 Mombert x sibb. It was a dark orange color. AGGC lists this as selfed but the seed packet was labeled as sibb.
There are no know progeny from the 823 Glasier. As I recall it was a very difficult to germinate seed.

Also in 1998 Pete also grew a 791 pounder. The pollination on this pumpkin was both selfed and sibb 567.5 Mombert.
The 791 Glasier was a light orange color.
The progeny of the 791 were dark orange.
