I want to try growing something as large as possible to hopefully grow
the walls of a house. My hope is that I can get several giant pumpkins
in a semicircle to form a small house with a big front window and
small storage rooms ( the pumpkins themselves ) forming the walls. I
don't know if this is possible; but, it sounds fun to try. I figure
that a pumpkin of a given weight will have a size inversely
proportional to the thickness of its walls, so that's why I want seeds
with thin wall genetics. I'd like weight, color and shape too; but,
for this project, size is the priority.
Cheers,
Enrique
