978.6 Berard '03---810 Dill '99 X 854.6 Berard '02
998.6 Pukos '05 ---1420.5 Larue '04 X 1446 Eaton '04
932.5 Tanner '05---1225 Jutras '03 X self
661 Andrews '05 ---1097.5 Beachy '02 X 161 Toftness '02
566 Young '05 est.-869.5 Calai '00 X 723 Bobier '99

I am stuck between all of these seeds. I have the rest of my line-up together, but I have one spot left and I would like some opinions of some other people with more experience. Remember my motto-Big and Orange. Thanks everyone, Brad.

978.6 is somewhat proven (proven for orange I think too), and I like that 932.5. Flip a coin, or see what other people say. AleX Noel.

The 661 Andrews had a beautiful color and shape , I like anything that was grown from the 1097.

I wouldn't exactly call the 1097.5 Beachy "beautiful bright orange".. but the 661 Andrews sure looks great. Was that best in show, G?

Brad here is a pic of the 04 VWO winner the 865 grown off of the 978.6 Berard. None of the others listed has yet to prove to grow anything orange but they have the potential.

Brad, I'd go with the 932.5 Tanner. The 1225 Jutras was a great pumpkin.
