Time to start my inaugural giant pumpkin growing season off with a pic of my patch. As you can see, the snow is almost gone from the garden/patch. Although, the rest of the yard still has a couple of inches of snow on it. It is still a bit chilly.
I have been experimenting with two different heating pads and two different coolers to see which combination will make a good germinating box. So far both have a lot of variation in temperature between the areas directly above the pad and those nearer to the top of the cooler. But, hopefully the addition of pots full of soil and seeds will retain some heat and help distribute it more evenly.
More pics to come as I decide on a germinating solution and make my seed choices for the season. Thanks to Eric Gerry and Peter Frei for more good seeds than I could ever hope to grow.
