Re: Acquiring Good Seed?


Nice to meet you Cliff.  It is nice to see someone
from my neck of the woods.  I'm in Ogden Utah not far
from you.  I was just through Pocatello on Saturday
(home from Island Park/Yellowstone).  I too appreciate
the comments and valuable information from this list. 
I am a first year grower and I am learning a ton.  I
have always been interested in growing a giant
pumpkin, and stumbled upon some AG seeds at our local
nursery this spring.  So far so good...but next year I
want to do it right and start with some better seed.
