Don't know how to save it. If you could help, please post on my post on new growers forum, or pest diseases and other proble... http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=313846 http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=313846 Wed, 06 May 2020 10:17:23 GMT 04/12/2020 I have put my 1608 Bryson seed in the ground, and I have planted a 1409 Lyons, as my second pumpkin, and have some of my own 216s, and 199s, for backups. http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312885 http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312885 Mon, 13 Apr 2020 06:48:28 GMT 03/31/2020 My second 980.5 that I planted has rotten.

My 980.5 has not quite sprouted, but I am hoping. My 1608 looks pretty good and it is growing. I am hoping to have my bed all the way finished soon, because I still have t... http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312423 http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312423 Fri, 27 Mar 2020 06:52:34 GMT 03/25/2020 I let the 980.5 soak for 24 hours and it got planted in the peat pot, that the previous one was in. I just soaked in plain water, so there should not be a problem with soaking for so long. Hoping it ... http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312414 http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312414 Thu, 26 Mar 2020 06:36:02 GMT 03/25/2020 So, I checked on my soaking seed this morning, and I expected to see nothing happening yet, but, it was all ready starting to open up!

I sanded much farther than I sanded the other ones. I hope it will sprout. http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312396 http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312396 Wed, 25 Mar 2020 07:10:17 GMT 03/23/2020 My 1608 is looking better, and it has mostly recovered.

I asked around on the message board for seed starting and I am hoping it will look better soon. http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312375 http://www.bigpumpkins.com/Diary/DiaryViewOne.asp?eid=312375 Mon, 23 Mar 2020 07:07:51 GMT 03/21/2020 I wanted to say,and I am trying to be calm, MY 1608 BRYSON HAS SPROUTED!
