I shared some of my pumpkin seeds with a neighbor.
Today he brought me this:

I am pretty certain this is Bob’s offspring. Now I need to plant the seeds and stabilize the type. Absolutely beautiful. It looks like a cross between the original Bob the Pumpkin and a cheese type. Never seen a C. moshata like this before. If I can get it to produce true-to-type, you may be able to get an original “David The Good” pumpkin in seed stores in a few years.
This is more of an accidental pumpkin than anything else – there was a great type I found, we planted the seeds, somewhere it must have crossed with something cool, and BAM – now we have something neat. If we can keep it!

You know I want seeds if you can stabilize the type (genotype?)!!!
You know I’ll share! Did you ever get pumpkins from that huge green one I gave you seeds from?
Nice! Hope it has all the characteristics you’re looking for. Would sure like a pumpkin that awesome in South Florida.
