Great prices and fast shipping. Got my order in two days. Two gallons of Fish Hydrolysate for $ 35.10. Many prices at a great deal when you buy more. Fish Hydrolysate regular $ 27.95 a gallon. For $ 7.00 more why wouldn't you get two gallons.

Since Spring here in Central New York we have had nothing but rain and cold weather. The month of June set a county record for rain fallOn Monday, Governor Andrew Cuomo formally requested that President Obama issue a disaster declaration for New York State following the major flooding last week. The Governor has already declared a State Disaster Emergency that includes the local counties Oneida, Herkimer, Otsego and Madison.

My first time ever winning first place at a weigh off. I had a lot of fun at the Cooperstown weigh off. It's great to go every year to talk growing these giants with other growers

Sometimes in life you wish for something to happen. Then out of the ordinary something happens that you least expected to happen. Today I went to the Oswego Giant Pumpkin Festival. I won first place for the largest squash. Weighing 874.5 pounds. I won first place two weeks ago in Cooperstown Giant Pumpkin Weigh Off, weighing at 755.5 pounds. I never dreamed of winning first place twice for a squash back to back at two different weigh off's.

The telephone rang tonight(Sunday). I said Hello. Voice on the other end said, Hello. I said Hello back. Voice on the other end says, Hello this is the Pumpkin Police. I said, It is. The Pumpkin Police says, I heard you filled your giant squash with water. I said No! The Pumpkin Police says, We've been told you did fill that Giant Squash with water. I said, No I didn't. Pumpkin Police says, Yes You Did! I said Honest to God I didn't and God is even my witness....... Little girl on the other end of the phone starts laughing and laughing. Then the little girls says, Congratulations Papa on your Giant Squash and that is one really,really big squash. It's amazing what things little children from the ages of around four years old to around eight years old come up with and also are so funny at saying them. The Pumpkin Police was my Grand daughter from North Carolina.... Love ya Mary and Love you also Emily..
