Pumpkin ID help, please!
To quickly preface my pumpkin ID trouble:
I had the brilliant idea to do a trial pumpkin patch at my new house this spring. I purchased several pumpkin mixes from commercial sources and labeled the zones that each mix was planted in. Then my yard flooded. Labels floated away, seeds redistributed to dependent areas, and my brilliant idea ended up lacking in the execution. I did have a variety that really stood out, I just don't know what it is! Here is the info: Smooth-skinned, pale tan, lightly ribbed with uniform 10lb size and roughly 14-16" tall. Elongated, though 2/5 were slightly thicker at the blossom end than the stem end. The single vine had 5 pumpkins on it (all 10lbs), so I don't know how large they could/would have become if I had pruned a few early in the season. If anyone can help with the ID, I would really appreciate it! I'm definitely saving seeds, though I don't know if it was a hybrid variety yet. Thanks in advance for any assistance! |
