I was wondering if anybody had planted an 895.5 hester seed , self pollinated it and then planted that seed. wondering if the color of the squash was generally the same as its mother. only way I can try to figure out if the 834 gadberry will keep that nice green/black color in its offspring? anyone got any ideas (not guesses)

Brett did it with the 675 Hester. It was a little lighter green. Russ L.

Rocky Rockwell did it also with his 717 of 03. Close in color to 895.5 too.
