RE: Seeds
Hello,
If this so called expert of 25 years is willing to sell you a seed and
guarantee the weight of the pumpkin (double your money back), I would buy
seed from him.
Then you won't have to worry about heat, water, disease, insects, weeds,
genetic varibility, and just shear neglect, cause IT'S IS ALL IN THE
SEEDS, as he says.
Gotta get me some of his magic seeds reallll soon. Must be 25 dog years
or something. Where did I leave that $500 bucks, oh yeah, dropped it when
I fell off the turnip truck.
Best of luck,
Regards,
Tom
