I will make everyone a deal... I will grow the Big Jims this winter, and when I get some long pods, I will take the seeds out of the longest ones, and let everyone grow those for the contest. But I can't say I will have any for sure untill they are all dry and in my hands. if everyone likes this Idea, I will Start the plants soon...

So what do you all think about this?!?

I have found out that you can buy Big Bertha seeds from anywhere you buy your gardening supplies. I believe you can find them at Home-depot. This may not be a good time of year to find them but I will look for them this week.
