Pacific Giant Vegetable Growers Auction
Growers Everywhere
I am pleased to announce the 2nd Annual PGVG giant pumpkin seed auction. The
Dills were kind enough to grant us permission again to hold this exciting
event. We will be combining both a two week slow bidding auction and
conclude with a (hopefully) fast paced live auction. The auction will start
on Feb 1st, and oh ya, there will be both single seed and multiple seed lots.
This will be fun as the seeds are incredible and enough to go around. Here
is the list........
Lot #1 The 1156 Larsen 2002 A cross of the 898 Knauss and the 1062 Rivard
Weighed 25.6% heavy, and had 17" thick walls on the blossom end. Not too
shabby from a 1st year grower.
