Thanks for the info on the NC Giants. Just two weeks old and there the
smallest seedlings out of all of the one's out there the Atlantic Giants are
the biggest. Thanks Again Animal
I tried NC Weeks the last two years and my best effort was about 40 pounds.
Watered the plants every single day by hand, fertilized, weeded, hand
pollinated, shaded; the works. Put down 16 plants last year, turned about 6
pumpkins. Just an FYI.

Hello
I'm new here and love all the info you guys give each other. I have not grown
Giant pumpkins before but this year I had some send me seed in a trade I did
on the garden web and I thought I would give it a try. The seeds are Atlantic
Giants, Titan and NC weeks I planted them all to see if I could get any to
sprout I went out this morning and It looks like there all sprouted. The A.
G. seedlings are big I did not think they would be that much bigger than a
jack o lantern I have grown in the past but I was wrong. I have a nice big
area in the garden for them to grow I started them in the garden so I don't
have to transplant them. I live in southern California. Know for the
question's How many seedling should I let grow and how do I pick out which
plant to keep and what is the best out of the three kinds I started to grow
here in California and any other info go can give me would be great. Thanks
Animal
