Atlantic Giants are in the Cucurbita Maxima family and will not cross-pollinate with a regular field pumpkin which is a Cucurbita Pepo. Atlantic Giants will cross with many members of the winter squash family. I got the info. from Pumpkinpatch.com

I crossed with a jaradale and have one that weighed thirty pounds at harvest time. average for those are 6-12 pounds. I guess it works.
