What do all of these seeds have in common in 2003 per the AGGC?
940 Koch 02 EXH
845 Nesbitt 01
845 Bobier 00 UOW
620 Boyton 03

I do not have any great seeds to give to the winner, but I will send the winner at my expense my 2003 seed stock.

You're headed in the right direction Ben. A little more to it then just that though, a lot of seeds throw squash.

Nice try Gordon. That may also be true, I do not know. But it is not what makes these four seeds, and only these four unique on the AGGC.

The time difference makes it hard to keep up. Steve is the closest, so he the winner by default. The answer is that these are the only 4 "pumpkin" seeds that have grown a squash and a pumpkin listed on the AGGC for 2003. Some squash seeds have done this also, but these are the only 4 maternal pumpkin seeds to have done it.
