Re: Major jump in seed prices................


 
My, my my!  Received this note from Mr. McIntyre. Some kind of auction you guys had  this past weekend. Were you all on drugs in Guelph Ontario ?"  Us hillbillies out in the wild west can't play with you high rollers anymore!
Guess we will plant our cheap seeds and hope for the best this year!

========================================

At the Canadian Giant pumpkin growers seminar in Guelph Ontario this
weekend there was a casino night on Saturday night.
 
After the casino closed some top quality seeds were auctioned off:
 
The first seed was sold for more than $ 4000.00
The second went for around 7500 dollars and the best
seed was auction last and went for an amazing price
of over $ 17,000.00 dollars.
 
This can be verified by anyone that was in attendance on the Saturday
night event before the seminar on Sunday.
 
Some of who are on line and were there are
 
Rock Rivard
Joe Pukos
Gene Butzer
Ron Wallace
Nic Welty
Bruce Kaye
Glenn Cheam
 
and many others, what an exciting auction, glad I didn't miss it.
