Jealousy Question

Title: Message
OK. Let me start by saying I'm hooked with this Giant Pumpkin quest and I blame it on my father. He brought over some Atlantic Giant seeds and we had a family competition. Well he beat me and I thought it would be no big deal, but he rubbed it in my face now since last fall. This year I thought I would get him by researching very hard this winter. I invested in some good stock, like 1062 Rivard, 1061.5 Gliberto, & 871 Wentzell. Like a good son, I told him where to purchase these seeds and he went out and bought at least 5 different types of seeds. Where am I going with this? Well he has a porch that bakes and all his plants are about 12 inches high. My 1061.5 Gliberto never germinated, the 1062 Rivard just came up and stands at a slim 2 inches, and the 871 Wentzell is 4 inches with 1 leaf with another coming. He has offered to give me a plant if I needed it, but he has that damn smile on his face. What should I do? If I take his 12 inch plant, then he will always can say that is his plant and it will never be 100% mine. Or is mine plants OK as they stand. I have the heater and grow lights on them now and the soil temp is about 78 degrees. Please anyone give me some advise what to do.
