Cause I really really Reallyyyyy want one for next year. Someone out there did not grow it this year, right?

I really want a 1610 lieber even if someone grows a 2000 pound orangeish blob this year I still want the 1610, I am tired of nothing but this cream color in my patch :] it needs variety not that the cream color isnt good in its own way

Orange is my favorite color therefore my patch should should have at least one of these in it!

Anyone knowing the whereabouts of a 1610 email me at:

I grew the 1610 last year and it turned out a cream/white color. You don't always get what you expect. I was hoping for orange as well. I crossed two HD award winners together but neither turned out to be a pretty orange. One did turn out "pretty" big though.

Spencer,

I just sent you am email. I'm pretty sure you will be happy growing the 980 Fredricks. Everyone I know growing it, whether they have a diary or not, has a smooth skinned, very beautiful orange fruit. Being from san diego, our pumpkins don't get as big here, but the 980 I am growing is blowing away anything I have ever grown in 11 years, and it's gonna be real pretty. Chris (southern cali grower) is also growing a monster off of it too. Any heavy hitters reading this, I dare you to grow it next year, you wouldn't be disappointed with it! Cross is 1544 by 1610.

Jim, I'd possibly be interested in growing it next year. I like the cross and look. I might be growing the 993 VMG too, and it would be a great cross for it given record heat doesn't return.
