Wednesday, April 1 View Page its late, the whole house is sick but i get to start my pumpkins soon. as a stay at home mom who is going to school, this is the most exciteing and relaxing thing i do all year. Wednesday, April 1 View Page i dont know ware to get all the seeds you all are talking about. i just bought the A.G. seeds from the catalog. i am some what of a celebraty in my town. i am the only grower of big pumpkins who lives in town. the first year i grew the bigest pumpkin that the town had seen. i did it in "town soil". none of the other farmers believed me till i invited them over to see the skid loader tracks in my back yard. that was 4 years ago. we have sence bought the house behinde us and payed it forward by giveing the biger house away to a couple who was haveing a hard time but were good people. i would love to finde out if there are better seeds out there. i usually keep 2 or 3 pumpkins for my husband and daughter to carve but we give the rest away to a foster home down the street. they dont know ware they come from. i just drop them off in the middle of the night. i think they may have guest but im not telling. foster homes usualy dont have much money and to see the looks on the kids when we go trick or treeting with our daughter and tell them how wounderful they are is priceless. so if any one can help me my email is [email protected] i dont know why but i never seem to reach any one on chat.
