Re: 12th Annual Bhaskaran Patch Free Seed Giveway

Hi Dave,
   I am living in Ireland and have been growing giant pumpkins for a couple
of years.  Due to the seeds I have not managed to grow anything bigger than
480lbs.  Would you have any seeds that I could try? Ideally I would like
red or orange in color because I love to carve large pumpkins for display.
 I have just joined the group so I am not sure of the protocol for exchange
of seeds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
John McDonough
Union Rd, Kilmacthomas, County Waterford, Ireland
