Years ago I had problems with the seeds that Gurney sold. The germination
rate was about 30%. In my opinion, they sell crap and I never was
satisfied with their seeds or products.
Only my 3 cents:
Bill Sadowski, in Ohio ready to start some seeds and get 800 pound plus
this year.
P.S. If Marv H is out there....hey I nailed a ground hog in the road the
other day. It was raining and foggy and I never saw the poor
thing.........I am sure you won't mind.

>I was wondering if anyone on the list had any problems ordering any of the
products Gurneys sells. Six to seven weeks ago I ordered a heating cable
for
my pumpkins and even though I called twice, sent a few emails, and I was
told
it was in stock twice it is not due to be shipped until the 15th of April.
I
find that is unacceptable and extremely poor business practice. I am
curious
how far ahead of time that one needs to order anything in order to get the
item in time for the seasons use. When I talked with a very nice young
lady
over the phone she was unable to tell me why this had occurred in regard to
my order or if she could rectify the problem. She thought it was as
ridiculous as I did. At this point I'll be amazed if I get the cable at
all.
I find it hard to imagine that in the last six weeks my $25.00 order could
not have been picked off the shelf, packaged and sent to me. Has anyone
else
run into this situation with Gurney's.............?
It is better to have planted pumkins and floundered than never to have
planted pumpkins at all.
