Hello everyone, I'm a new grower to giant pumpkins this year and am very excited about it. I've grown a ordinary vegetable garden before but nothing like this. So I'd like to introduce myself and say hello and good luck to everyone this year.
My names Dustin, and I'm interested in these giants because 20 years ago my dad grew one that was only 300 or so #'s and got his best friend hooked. "DOC" as we call him has been growing them ever since. He recently got his personal best 1191, which he kindly gave me some seeds from, as well as he won the Howard Dill award at the OVGPG Weighoff in 2009. WAY TO GO DOC!!
So, I'm a newbie and am looking for any advice that anyone may have to offer. I've done some reading in the past few years and figured what the heck, I'll give it a shot. I have a small patch and want to CRAM in 2 plants, even though I know its not enough room. Ok on to pictures and patch specs. Bare with me, I'M NEW TO ALL OF THIS lol. Once again, good luck in the 2010 season.
