After carving my 120 pounder I have some basic and some weird questions to
ask:
1. I have some "weird seeds". They are differently colored or a non-
traditional shape. Should I try these for "different" outcomes?
2. I grew some hybrid prizewinners next to my AG's, what can I expect for next
year?
3. Do larger, fatter seeds mean a better pumpkin producing plant?
4. Do all seeds have the same genetic blue print, or they all different?
5. Has anyone done a study to see if seeds closer to the stem of a pumpkin
produce larger fruits?
6. This is really weird......Has anyone thought of growing AG's next to a pool
or pond? Just think if the vine could be suspended above the water.......the
pumpkin could float and expand perfectly. You could even have a support system
under the water! Hmmmmm......................I might have eaten too much
halloween candy!
Sincerely,
Daniel Barnett
