i'm having problems with getting my green pumpkin right, i use m&f colorants , lureworks colors, dead on plastics colors as well.
does anyone have a recipe that i can use with any of these 3 companies ? any help is greatly appreciated.

I haven't tried it myself as I am using X2 colors for GP, but previously someone posted a recipe that was
Basic Green Pumpkin
4oz plastic
6 drops watermelon
6 drops pumpkinseed
Black flake
I can't find the original post, but it had an entire run down of various recipes. I think it was in the color cook book section.

Billy , Not sure what your looking for in a green pumpkin ?
I add brown to mine .

I'm the same and use Do-it colors only. I use 4 drops of green pumpkin brown to 4 oz of plastic. A bottle of that stuff goes a long ways. I believe the bottom ones are green pumpkin brown with black flake

Everybody’s green pumpkin is a little different. I usually start with someone’s green pumpkin, doesn’t matter whose, and add a drop or two of red. This’ll give you a more brownish look to it. You can probably even start with a watermelon color and do the same thing.

Not a really much of a bass guy and the premier color is baby bass and pearl / watermelon red flake / black with blue hi lite I call mind night blues it’s one of the most awesome color I’ve made solid tomato and black And cooper flake / white with red flake.

It worked too. A boy with me was freaking out because I had the boat sitting in 65 feet of water & was loading the boat fishing pretty much straight down & he couldn’t get bit. Lol He said I ain’t ever saw anybody catch them on a brush hog in 65 feet & sat down to watch & aint been with me since. Lol Fish just feeding up after spawn & the yellow was huge because regular green pumpkin never caught but two fish.
