land o' giants
just type that into MSN
annedawn publishing
just type that into MSN, also.
videos and seeds from Joel Holland at Holland's Land o' Giants--get the 2002 AND the 97--so you'll be caught up on
the state of the art, and the 97 i think shows the best germinating, pollinating, and general through-the-season care that there has been. and he'll send you some good seeds.

the volume 2 book of Don Langevin's, at annedawn publishing,
or 'How to Grow World Class Giant Pumpkins, II' is the official bible of AG (Atlantic Giant) growers. u'll be sooo hooked-up! and get some seeds from him also!!! 'pal
