Group,
I think everybody is getting too revved up over this. Selling a seed for
a hundred bucks is not a sign of impending doom in the pumpkin World. Tony
Ciliberto and I were talking on the phone last week and were talking about
how in the early days of giant pumpkins, there were just a few hot pumpkin
seeds floating around. Now there are so many good seed possibilities (
literally hundreds of them) ...it would be impossible to try them all. As
more people join the pumpkin growing ranks, the hundreds of good seed types
will turn in to thousands. I could care less if you are a Capitalist,
socialist , agronomist , communist. Time to stop the hand wringing and get
back to the enjoyment of gardening. 98% of the things people worry about
never come true and the other 2% is beyond your control.........I'll give you
something to really worry about.Vine borer season is coming up for some of us
next week . While some are worried that Mike Turner is turning the pumpkin
World into smouldering ashes.......the vine borers are planning a sneak
attack next week. Call to arms!!!!!!!!!! Man your back pack sprayers, fly
swatters, shotguns.....whatever it takes to fend off the borer assault. Borer
at 3 oclock!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Incoming!!!!!!!!!@#$%^&*)((*^#%&**&%$
