RE: Seeds
Lottery???!!! What are you talking about???? I can tell that you don't know
what you are talking about. It is all about evolution. I don't want to
educate you--but perhaps I need to. The biggest pumpkins will offer seeds
that in turn will grow the biggest offspring, and typically the smaller
pumpkins will make smaller ones. Is that simple enough for you--Lottery
Smottery it is all about the seed.

Hello,
I am no expert, but I have watched the list email for some months now.
What I have learned is every seed is like a chance at a lottery.
Some of the people on this list have access to seeds that have much better
chances, of hitting the **BIG ONE**, but it is up to you, the effort you
put into it, and the right genetics being in the seed (not mentioning
weather, disease and insects).
Even seeds from the biggest pumpkins do not guarantee they will equal or
exel their parents.
But the odds are in your favor if you can get some seed from people in
this group. I have never seen them refuse anyone, or let a question go
unanswered very long.
Best of luck this year and those to follow.
Regards,
Tom
