Started the Giants today: top to bottom: 2063 Willemijns is an absolute beast of a seed, never seen one like it--reverse cross of the new world record; 2261 Wallace, new North American record; 2075 Connolly, new Maine state record; 1685 Scherber, new Colorado record; and three 350 Est. Hanauer's--never developed a hard seed coat, but the 12 I've tested all germinated and are growing strong. Filed the edges and soaked for 7 hours in warm water and a little humic acid before planting in the warm starter mix in the cooler with the heat mat. The 2017 giant pumpkin season is officially under way.
