Hello All,

I heard there is a lot of people growing the 1332 Wolf this year. I myself am growing this plant and it seems to be doing pretty good, I have one set about 12ft out @ 18 days right now with about 80% of 500 sq ft full. The size is looking pretty good (have not measured yet, waiting for day 20) but the color seems to going to a white or cream. I know it is still pretty early to determine final color but from what i have seen if a pumpkin at 18 days is cream to white it will not go orange.

What is the color looking like on everyone's 1332's?

I think mine is throwing a hint orange already at day 18 or so. Crossed with 1725 harp

I'm not growing the 1332, but here's a thought. I am growing the 1059 VMG which almost all I have seen end up deep orange, and at day 16 mine is still off white with just a small hint of yellow.

Peter's looks like it should be orange from the pic he sent. Also the best shape so far that I have seen.

My day 19 fruit is going to be a taller one, and so far looking light orange. The day 9 fruit looks like it may be a better color, but too early to tell.

I have two going. One is a weaker plant by no fault of its own, with a smooth and pale pumpkin that has ok growth. The other is a ribbed monster that will definitely go orange. Today is day 24 and I will not be surprised by a 100" cc measurement.

My 1332 is doing great it is sitting at 32 inches at day 14 and I think it should be a nice orange color, here is a pic.
