I live on 1 acre and have space to try growing a giant pumpkin. Its something I have always wanted to do. Now
have property large enough I want to start the process
of learning.

How can I find a few seeds to try it out this year
and experiment? Live in South West Washington state

Also looking for giant Sunflower.
Thanks Much

Search: Growing Giant Pumpkins
Here is a video that I have not watched yet (but I will, VERY soon) from a reputable and fun to listen to (because I know what a great guy he is) grower that will fill up an hour or so of waiting for responses otherwise; Having seen this (and implementing most of what is conveyed) you could grow a pumpkin bigger than I have after 24 years of doing it otherwise, myself, lol!

It will be very slow on here in the interim due to that it's generally the Calm Before the Storm;
Concerning seeds, you COULD put your original post, a duplicate, in
Seed Exchange for probably more-pertinent responses from those whom may want to contribute.
I also have seeds a-plenty for you butt I have not yet grown a 1,000-pounder (940.6 in 2020)
and that doesn't mean ALL THAT much, but a seed that has not yet grown a really, really, BIG Pumpkin?
...Almost, why would you? However, any new personal best (PB) is better than none.
I have NO DOUBT that my seeds can and would produce HUGE pumpkins in an appropriate patch, which could be
ANYone's, ANYwhere. MY seeds/other grower (or myself, really, with focusing more) = BOOM! If nothing else,
they would get you started, with great possibilities.
Watch videos, re-post and email me at
[email protected]
with your real address and at least I can get them going your...weigh.
Later---eric g/pumpkinpal2---Sorry, no giant sunflowers butt I can advise for getting them, perhaps.
PS---No pressure, and no response is not a worry, but I am here.
