The 845 bobier crossed with the 801.5 stelts, crossed either way with each other. There are no pumpkins anywhere in the aggc with this cross. I'm sure someone has done it, but no one on the aggc has. The only similar cross, 723x 801 has been done with pretty decent success with it's seeds. The 960 rose comes to my mind. why is this such a rare cross when you think it would be a great cross?

I did a 845 X 801.5 cross this year as well...
Hope it is a good one!

What web site can you look these seeds up on?

Appalachian Mtns.

The 801.5 is a 1997 seed and there's not an abundance available and traveling around anymore.

Members can log onto AGGC. There is also a feature available to non-members that I hear is quite useful.

See the link from this website.

Keep in mind that fruit grown in 2003 or later that weighed less than 500 lbs isn't listed & also that not all growers choose to submit their data & also that Mike can't list fruit that isn't submitted in the proper format.

Point being; not all the decent crosses are on AGGC.
