The Dutchman Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Try as I may I cannot get it right. If anyone has a recipe for the old old GP and willing to share I would be be a happy person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsworms Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Have you tried just adding a little brown to watermelon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Remember, the first green pumpkin was a mistake that worked. Watermelon and pumpkin mixed together by accident, according to something I read here on TU. Read it online, can't be wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Found my old formula. Sorry it took so long. 20 drops Lc yellow 6 drops LC brown 4drops Lc black 1drop Lc electric blue This will be close but the last time I made it the yellow bleed. So beware. Just a note you can change all the drops to ccs and make a large amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 How old is old old? Probably 8 years or more. Most people don't even know what this color looks like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dutchman Posted April 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Frank, I assume that is for one cup plastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass4cache Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 IMO Lureworks Green Pumpkin SP #156 is really close to the old LC GP. http://www.ispikeit.com/Store/p-396-green-pumpkin-sp-156.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 Frank, I assume that is for one cup plasticNo this is a formula for the green pumpkin colorant. Then you have to add it to plastic. If you add these colors together you will get the old green pumpkin. I use to use this to make a pint and then add it to taste for the plastic. I hope this makes sense. IMO Lureworks Green Pumpkin SP #156 is really close to the old LC GP. http://www.ispikeit.com/Store/p-396-green-pumpkin-sp-156.aspx It's is close to the last green pumpkin but not the one from about eight years ago. That one is way more opaque and more of an wwII army color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteSS Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 OK I have some from 2-3 years ago 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 I still have some from early 2000. I started messing with matching it years ago but wasn't a big issue as I had plenty of it at the time. I think I recall using Del's Olive as a starting point then but could be wrong.

I was heart broken when they changed it. So we're my customers. Now we can all have it back again. Unless the colors in the recipe change!!!!
