Re: seed offer


Dear John,
    I would love a few of your seeds, but I also don't have anything to trade.
I'm too embarassed to say what my big ones weighed this year.  They are tiny
compared to everything in this group.  However, I did finally win our county
fair's biggest pumpkin contest and won $10.00 for it! Perhaps the prize money
wasn't worth it, but  my family and I had a ton of fun growing "Fatso", "Baby"
and "Walter".   We'd like to grow a much bigger one next year, so I figure trying
to track down some good seeds is one place to start.  I've also been trying to
take notes from all you "professional" growers out there so I can do better next
year.  Good luck to you all at the weigh offs.  Diane
