Re: Seeds
Ryan, Randy and List:
I will again make seeds available for anybody that wants them this year.
As anybody knows that has ever sent seeds out, it is a lot of work. The
harvesting, drying, packing the envelopes, is extremely time consuming. Last
year I sent out over 80 requests. The worst part is writing out the seed
crosses on the little envelopes. Anyhow, what I am asking everyone that
would like seeds Please send a self address bubble envelope and two dollars
or send five dollars and I'll take care of the envelope and postage. For an
additional $69.00 and $7.00 postage or 12 dollars Canadian I'll include one
of my Reynolds lifting tarps! These tarps are proven to 1190 lbs. and 1131
lbs. Larry and Gerry, I got to know, was my tarp on the Letterman show
hiding under the beautiful material they had flowing around the base of your
World Record pumpkin?
These are the seeds crosses available this year, if you want something
from last year let me know. Please list your choices in order, I'll try to
accommodate as supply dictates. As you know some pumpkins have lots of seeds
and some don't. If you get an envelope with one seed, I did not have many or
many people wanted that cross. I will send at least 3 different crosses to
everyone.

Well, have fun studying the list!!! Weights were not impressive this year.
(drought) Pick the ones with the Genetics you want. No charge to the growers
who sent me these seeds last year, just let me know what you want and I'll
send them out.
