Our local weigh-off has decided to go GPC in 2017 and there will be additional categories to try and get more people interested in growing competitively. I've decided to grow a couple giant bell pepper early so I can have seeds by fair time for interested growers. I'll do the same a bit later with giant tomatoes, field pumpkins and marrows. I also got my hands on 9 varieties of tall corn. Six came Columbia, all Montana race. Two from Mexico, Tuxpen race. One from Cuba, Tuson race. All these seeds were collected in the 1980's. Only planted 1 from each since I have a VERY limited supply on 2/4 and seven have sprouted. Started a second on the 2 no shows today. I hope to have nice size plants to put out in late April to very early may. Going to tinker with a handful of giant onions. Got a late start on from what I'm finding out. If anyone has a lead on some real giant onion seeds I sure would appreciate it.
