Re: Seeds

Ryan,

Here's a link to the Utah Giant Pumpkin Growers.   
http://www.utahpumpkingrowers.com/

Members in the club will be more than glad to give you seeds and get you
started with growing advice for your are.

I'll email you my address.  Send me a stamped, self-addressed 00 bubble pack,
and I will send you seeds from  500lb -plus pumpkins to get you started.

Seeds are good for about 10 years, so don't be put off by the years on the
seed envelopes.  These are all good seeds from long-time growers.  Make your
mistakes on the small ones--reap your successes on the big ones.

Steve Minor

Ryan, I hate to break the news to you, but the seeds you bought might, just
might, grow a 3-4 hundred lb fruit, if you are real lucky.

If you want BIG pumpkins, you need SEEDS from a BIG pumpkin.

Ask here for seeds here, and you shall receive(yeah, verily) seeds from a big
one.

I've been there, done that with the store-bought seeds.

Where do you live?  There are growers clubs in just about state and province
that can help you.

Steve.

This year will be my first attempt at growing a giant.  I've read up on the
subject quite a bit, but I've got a question about about where to get the
best
seeds.  I've got room to grow two plants, and I'm hoping to get a couple
of 500 pounders.  Is the packets of "Dills Atlantic Giant" seeds I bought
going to produce what I'm looking for?  I appreciate any advice, Thanks, Ryan
