Butter cup WELL look like Butter HE HE HE .. That's why it won PRETTIEST at
the weigh off YEAH...Opened all my pumpkins yesterday and there was NO rot NO
germination inside of the pumpkins, were as dry and fresh as they would had
been on the vine !!!! except all have been sitting in the sun off the plants
for 2 months !!! Anyone wanting seeds let me know I will be Looking for your
Bubble packs and for those of you that have seeds to trade give me a quick
email with your address and I will get the seeds to you for trade as soon as
