As we approach germination time for the giant pumpkins, here is an experiment from last year, and another example of what not to do. After a few trials with fresh new seeds to determine the optimum depth to plant the seeds in gel, I 'planted' this batch of old seeds. A ton of classics from days gone by, but sadly, none of them germinated. My seed gel even had a light fungicide in it and was kept at a consistent 82 Degree air temp at 80% humidity. This germination process does work, but not very well on giant pumpkins, especially old seeds.
